Washcloth Lollipops

For this project, you will need:
2 washcloths
1 baby spoon or fork
1 gift tag
1 length of ribbon
1 clear 4” candy wrapper
1 twist tie
Double stick tape
Scissors
1. Roll the washcloths into tight strips (like a cigar) and secure with 2-3 strips of double stick tape.
2. Holding the ends of the washcloths and spiral together using tape to hold together. You may need
some additional tape to get the washcloth ends to lay flat and resemble a swirled lollipop.
3. Slip the top of the “lollipop” into a clear 4” candy wrapper. Slide the utensil behind it and secure all
with a twist tie.
4. Thread the ribbon through the tag loop and tie a bow over the twist tie.
5. Adjust ribbon and trim ends as necessary.
These make beautiful embellishments for a shower gift or charming decorations when placed in small
flower pots with candy!
