Quick, what is this?

Does it at least kind of look like a float?

I was trying to think of something small and nice I could do for my aunts for having the family get together for us. I didn’t want to get them any thing that could not be used up and go away. When you’re in your 70s and 80s, you’ve had enough time to get about five of everything you need, three of everything you want, and then some. I think in general I’m going to start going this route when I don’t know of a specific item for someone. I’m really not that great of judge on what someone else wants to have around their place. But, who wouldn’t love their favorite soda with some Hershey Kisses?

You will need:

• Straws (cut into 3 pieces)
• A small bag of Hershey Kisses (or other candy if you’d like)
• Cans of your desired cola
• Wrapping ribbon (curled with scissors)
• A cool temp glue gun
• Some foam you can cut into small circles to stick on the top of the cans

I always forget until I’m about halfway through a project that they go faster when you do all of one thing at a time!

Just glue away!

I also looped some spare beads I had through florists’ wire and stuck a few into each. My aunts really like sparkly things.

Tada!

What are some other cute favor ideas for a shower/party hostess that you know will go to good use?
