Hershey's Kiss Chocolate Rose
So, when it comes to Valentine's Day, what do you like to receive from
your sweetheart? Chocolates and roses are always popular gifts and this Hershey's kiss chocolate rose combines both!
I'm participating in a monthly challenge with a fun group of craft
bloggers and each month we're challenged to make something with a
specific theme. This month's theme is "pink" which is perfect for
Valentine's Day! I always love seeing what each of the challenge participants creates. (To see all of this month's entries, just scroll down to the end of this post.) For this month's theme, I decided to make a Hershey's kiss chocolate rose from my Valentine's Day Pinterest board. To make this project, you'll need a few basic supplies:
Materials:
Hershey kisses
pink tissue paper
wooden skewers
scissors
floral tape
artificial leaves

Cut a square piece of tissue paper about five inches wide on each side.

Red roses are traditional for Valentines day, but pink ones are my favorite!

It would make a great gift for a teacher. Too bad I don't have kids in school any more! :(
