Valentine's paper plate treat holder

Happy saturday!

Well look at these,  so cute, fun to gift and easy to make!

I went into the dollar tree and homegoods to find some paper plates.

The top picture is the ones from Homegoods, the one below is from 

dollar tree, both equally adorable, but of course the ones below 12 for $1.25.   Such a steal.

What you need:

Paper plates

ribbon

cello wrap

candy 

packaging tape 

straws

You can find all of these at the dollar tree or the store of your choice.

Take two plates and unwrap them, then fold one of them inside out.

You can see in the picture above the ridge around the plate.

The photo below shows you how I folded it inside out.

Using the second plate, fill it with any candy, toys, gift cards,

small socks, anything that will fit in that plate.

Grab your straw and tape in to the plate that has the candy on it.

I used thick strapping tape as opposed to wrapping tape.

Start taping the plate, I taped the top, bottom and sides. 

Lay your plate on top of the cello wrap and cut enough cello

to wrap around the top of the plate, almost like you're folding

it in half so that is meets up with the straw. 

Now tie your cello around the base of the plate and straw,

use some wrapping tape to adhere any little pieces of

cello that you need to tape down. 

That's it!  Aren't they adorable!
