Supplies Needed

  • Plastic plates (preferably white)
  • Green paint
  • Red paint

  • Paintbrush
  • Scissors
  • Hot glue gun and glue

Optional: Glitter glue or glitter paints

How to Make Giant Lollipops for Christmas

For this Christmas decoration, you will begin with two plates. I used plastic, but you can use styrofoam or paper.

Paint both plates with the same pattern so when you attach them together, it looks cohesive. I made a lollipop look with swirling colors, so I added a green stripe, then red, and made sure that I matched the designs on both pieces as best as I could.

I went back over the lines with some glitter glue but you can also use regular glitter or glitter paint if you wish.

Once the plates have dried completely, you will glue a craft stick to the inside of one of the plates leaving the bulk of the craft stick outside as a "stem".

Next, you will glue the second plate to the first with the decorated sides on the outside.

Allow the glue to dry, then begin making a bow to attach to the plates.

Secure the bow to the bottom of the "lollipop" with hot glue and then add a few berries or similar holiday embellishments in the center.

If wrapping in cellophane you can do that now or before adding the bow.

Display wherever you want around your home!

Notes

Mix and match colors of your plates to create a variety of "hard candy" colored lollipops. Red, white, green, yellow, orange, purple, and even blue can all easily be decorated to create unique and fun giant lollipops to go on your porch or in your home as a decoration this Christmas.
