Such pretty little holders, Mary! I love this DSP!
So cute, Mary! It reminds me of the Ghiradelli square holders we used to make!
So pretty!
This is so pretty! So glad I ordered it!! When I feel better and can see better after Cataract surgery, I will enjoy this set.
Very Pretty!
These are so adorable..I think I will have to make some soon!
OMG I am totally in love with these updated little treat holders. I have made hundreds of these and I think it is time to make more. Though the Tic Tacs are perfect for these a homemade treat would maybe be cheaper if I want to make a lot more. Oh, I can go with the idea of using my fruit paper. We have a store here that has tons of packaged candies. I saw watermelon ones in the wind as I was walking the dog. My brain is in overdrive figuring out what to put in these. Thanks for making my day!!!
Aww! Your excitement just made my day, too! 💖 I love the idea of using your fruit paper – it’s perfect for a sweet treat theme. And homemade goodies sound like a fabulous (and budget-friendly) option! I can already picture those watermelon candies paired with that paper – yum! Keep that creative spark going – I can’t wait to see what you come up with! 💌😊
