I’m more than a little enamored with gift wrap.
I’ve wrapped things with vintage maps and I’ve wrapped things in string so when I found these itty bitty paper pom poms I immediately thought how can I use this on a present?!
My answer? Turn it into a lollipop!
You’ll Need:
Pom Pom Tissue Balls
Wrapping Paper in Coordinating Shades
Lollipop Sitcks
Clear Glue
Plastic – I cut up a ziploc bag but if you don’t have time to add the plastic it’ll still be cute
Ribbon
Gift Tag
First, use your glue to attach your lollipop stick to the top of your wrapped gift. You could do it in the center, at an angle, or off to one side.
Next, open your pom pom 180 degrees (so on the top is a pom and the bottom is flat… sort of like a bio-dome) and glue down the flat side onto the paper at the top of the stick. Now, if you’re so inclined, cut out some plastic and glue it around the edges of your pom pom. I used a pen tip to glue it around underneath the edge of the pom pom so it looked like a lollipop wrapper.
Now, slip the ribbon through the gift tag and create a bow. Use the glue to attach it to the base of the pom pom where your plastic is gathered.
You can write whatever you’d like on the tag but I like my puns thank you very much! ~Rachel
