Wedding DIY: How To Make Giant Candy Lollipops!
It’s no secret that me and Emily are big lovers of colours and fun themes & when we had such great feedback from our Dr Seuss inspiration board a few weeks ago we couldn’t resist following on with a DIY that would work perfectly with any colourful and crazy decor!
These giant lollipops are really easy to make and would look amazing dotted around a room! Fun would instantly be added!
Ready to know how? Here we go…
You will need:
♥ Accrylic white paint
♥ A paint brush
♥ Wrapping paper tubes
♥ String
♥ Sellotape
♥ Ribbon
♥ Balloons
♥ Cellophane
♥ Scissors
Step 1: Paint the wrapping paper tubes white! You may want to add a couple of coats to make sure that it looks lovely and thick!
Step 2: Blow up the balloons! But don’t blow them up too much, remember you want them to look quite round so that they resemble a lollipop.
Step 3: Cut a piece of string a little bit longer than the length of your tube and tie it to the end of your balloon
Step 4: Tie the other end to something heavy like a stone! It’s only to drop the string down through the tube!
Step 5: Drop the string down through the tube.
Step 6: Pull the string tight and tape in place inside the tube.
Step 7: Cut off the remaining amount of string along with the stone.
Step 8: Place the cellophane over top of the balloon and cut a piece long enough to reach below the balloon and onto the tube on both sides. Then cinch it around the balloon and hold in place.
Step 9: Tie a ribbon around to hold the cellophane in place!
You’re done! Now grab your next balloon and get making a few more!
Much Bespoke Love
