Supplies:

  • scissors
  • strawberry licorice laces
  • gummy ring candy (any flavor)
  • cellophane treat bags
  • washi tape
  • You can create your own cards or you can download the template from HGTV in the link above.

Directions:

  1. String gummy rings on a licorice lace. Each necklace should have 7 to 8 gummy rings.
  2. Download and print cards or make your own. Cut a half-inch slit on each side of a card. Thread the finished necklace through the slits, leaving the excess licorice on the back of the card. Tie excess licorice into a loose bow.
