Candy Holder Christmas Ornament

Hi there friends! Today I am sharing an assembly tutorial for the new Candy Holder Christmas Ornament Santa (SVG, Silhouette). This ornament comes in several different styles as well. You can find the bundle here. I used the Lindt Lindor chocolate and found that a heavier (85lb) cardstock worked better than a lighter (60lb) one. But these are defiantly a great scrap buster project. These cuties would look great tired to a gift as well as hanging on a tree. 

After I cut everything out, I decided to discard the round cheeks for some pink chalk that I applied with a paint brush. I then assembled the faces of my characters. The front of the Santa also has a belt, a white ruffle for the hat, an additional cover for the top of the hanger and a white ruffle for the bottom of his jacket.  

With front of the characters done I folded the score line into mountain folds. Before tucking the candy into the belly of the ornament I used some glue dots to secure the wrapper onto the back of the candy. I then added glue to just the top of the inside of the ornament. Creating s little A-Frame shape with the ornament. The chocolate then slides right into the belly of the ornament. 

I added a sticker and tied some bakers twine to the top. 

These are a cute fun project. Thanks for stopping by today!
