Ellen b. is not known for being one to sit around making crafts. In fact I have a reputation for being not so crafty. That however does not mean I never get inspired to try to make something “cute”. I was inspired by Vicki at Windows to My Soul when she posted a great Christmas gift idea. A whisk stuffed with candy kisses wrapped in cellophane and tied with a pretty ribbon. On the card she wrote “Whisking you a Merry Christmas”.
I decided I wanted to do the same thing but with smaller whisks and for a New Year’s Gift for my Mom, Sisters and Nieces since we weren’t together on Christmas but we are having dinner together this week. These would also make great party favors for a wedding shower. Here’s the process I went through to make these.
The whisks were purchased at Business Costco in Washington State. They were very reasonable ($2.25) for the small ones.
You gently pull apart the whisk and gently stuff the head with Kisses.
You can use food wrap to seal the head of the whisk or you can buy that fancy cellophane that you use for making gift baskets.
Tie the bow on with a gift card and you have a cute gift or party favor. Fun all around…
Here’s how they looked at the place settings for our dinner.
