  • 1 A bunch of Scrap Paper

Steps (11 steps, 30 minutes)

  1. 1

    Gather your scrap paper.

  2. 2

    Draw out circles for simple wrapped candies. Cut them out and choose a contrasting colour for the wrapper tips.

  3. 3

    Cut out two fishtail shapes connected by a thin middle (this will make it easier to tape to the back of the circles).

  4. 4

    Finished little wrapped candies.

  5. 5

    Now cut out larger colourful circles for large lollipop swirls.

  6. 6

    Choose one colour as the base and one as the top swirl. Take the top colour and cut out a swirl by cutting at one point and following the circle until you reach the middle.

  7. 7

    Make the swirls thinner by cutting along the middle of the strip all the way through the middle.

    Glue the swirls on top of plain circles and add a little strip for the stick.

  8. 8

    To make candy sticks, cut out a few strips and match similar shades together.

    Cut out diagonal strips from each light shade and discard every other one. Glue the rest down with an even space between.

  9. 9

    Candy sticks are done!

    Continue making a bunch of different paper candies -your imagination is your limit!

  10. 10

    Glue all of the candies down close together on the string and hang it wherever you like!
