If you need a super simple fall craft with minimal effort and/or supplies, plus is cute to boot, this one fits the bill!
Ingredients and supplies needed: candy melts, pretzel sticks, plastic spoons, green fondant and a fondant cutter.
You will also need parchment or wax paper.
I try to always keep white fondant on hand.
This way, I can color my own should I be out of the color fondant I need.
However, green fondant can be purchased at any craft store.
Just roll out and cut. I used the smallest fondant cutter from this set.
If you don't have leaf cutters, you could easily cut them freehand with a knife.
Follow directions on candy melts package on how to melt the candy. Hmm..did y'all get that?
I like to melt mine in a small saucepan over low heat.
Line a baking sheet with parchment or wax paper.
Dip spoon in candy, insert broken piece of pretzel and place leaf.
Let spoons rest on edge of pan till set.
I used a spoon on it's flip side to hold leaf in place until candy hardened.
Ooohh that's it!
These would have made perfect "Back to School" teacher gifts.
Of course you could gift these anytime.
Just use the appropriate themed ribbon and tie them up in cello bags!
