DIY FRI.
It’s DIY FRI. again, where every Friday I try to post something you can do yourself rather than buy, which is a money saver, and can be VERY REWARDING. Some of these posts are crafts, sewing projects, homemade cleaners, homemade health aids, tutorials, and the like.
I found this totally cute and simple idea at the Crafty Blog Stalker. It thought this would be great little addition to Ellie’s birthday display. This is great to use for baby showers, birthdays, graduations and celebrations. I want to make more for different events, bring them out and use as desired.
You don’t need a whole lot of supplies, and it’s fun to do it with some kiddos!

Thanks for sharing this week at One Creative Weekend! I’d love for you to join the party again tomorrow. I’ll have to try the tape and glue to get them to lay flat!

I tried something like this, and I could not get the lollies to lay flat! I must’ve used the wrong thickness of paper or something. Another great project!
