Lollipop Bouquet

Like a lot of you, I have been trying to make healthier food choices for the new year and therefore, I have not been baking as much as I have been. Don't worry though, I'm sure I will be back at it again soon enough :) I've been putting my creativity to use by making crafts - they are fat free and so much fun! In addition to my recipe addiction, I also have a huge pile of craft ideas that I get from blogs, magazines, etc. I don't even remember where I saw this one, but I thought it was a great idea! My friend Jaclyn is the big 30 today, so I made this for her and delivered it to her office - I think she'll be surprised! I purchased the silver bucket from the Dollar Bin at Target a couple of months ago and the lollipops came from the Dollar Tree. I put floral foam in the bottom and covered it with confetti paper and then wrapped curling ribbon around most of the lollipops to make it prettier. I think it turned out pretty cute. Happy Birthday Jaclyn!!

  5. You gave me a bright idea Lynda! Since most of my office mates love to eat something sweet, I think I am also going to place a lollipop bouquet for them once we are done transferring to our new office space at the Crown @ Robinson. I bet that they'll going to love it! Thanks sharing this post!
