Faux Gumdrop Ornaments for a Candyland Christmas Theme - 🍭🍬🎄🍡

[@DonnasCreationsandMore]

I just used the easter eggs and cut around the bottom with foam board and glued it in and coated with modge podge and glitter. I have a video on it. I'm gonna do the same with some mini foam eggs I got at Easter. Just cut them in 1/2. Definitely don't throw anything away. lol nothing a little sandpaper can't fix to your desired shape.

I've been watching all your "candy" videos and I just wanted to say, whether your going off of someone else's idea, or your own, you have the BEST attitude of any crafter I've seen!! Your tenacity is admirable; nothing gets in your way. Everything looks so realistic and fun. Great job!

[@HarmonyHillsHomeandGarden]

Thanks!!!! I think other crafters are tenacious too, they just don't show their foibles all the time!!!!!

[@bevcarter1554]

I sooo appreciate you showing the "fails". You are great and inspire me to do some of these projects. Thanks!!

[@janeta2559]

Lots of credit Jenny for sticking with the project. Its interesting how we learn by doing and Im so glad you showed what worked and what didn't work. They turned out just great. Just finished decorating my first tree and getting ready to tackle tree number two in the kitchen. I use all use all food and cooking related ornaments. I owned a gift store for 20 years so I have a huge variety of ornaments. Loving all your videos Jenny.

[@HarmonyHillsHomeandGarden]

Thanks Janet! I, too, am decorating today (and yesterday... and tomorrow... ). It's a fun season! I bet you have the BEST ornament collection!

[@thecrystalcompany]

Thank you for sharing the mistakes. How about spray painting the Easter egg the color that you want and then putting mod podge on and putting glitter over top of that??

[@kathrynmettelka7216]

This video, actually this series, has been so much fun that I hope you do more. Easter has possibilities. So does Mardi Gras.

[@HarmonyHillsHomeandGarden]

More videos coming, as soon as I can find time to edit them!

Coat with Vaseline so easy to remove 😊

Really cute and you're right they do look like cinnamon rolls.

[@karlahowe732]

These are supper cute. I wonder if it would help to drill a couple of small holes in yop of egg to help get air to dry.

[@jasminelouisefarrall]

They look really good Jenny 🥰 well done 💕

[@HarmonyHillsHomeandGarden]

Thank you!

[@sherylsantoro]

Your perseverance really paid off! They look great and very realistic!

[@HarmonyHillsHomeandGarden]

Thanks!

[@logannewman7141]

You need to drill a small hole in the top of the egg. Use Pam spray and ta da!

[@linakhoury6623]

[@DaunLedford]

Maybe drill a small hole at the end

[@marianhintz9981]

Turned out very cute!!! Great idea!!🎄

[@HarmonyHillsHomeandGarden]

Thanks!

[@Gigi-fv9ky]

Very cute! I wonder if you could use the normal size plastic eggs to make smaller ones? Or would the foam spray not work with a small mold? Kudos to you for sticking with it. I appreciate that you showed the entire process, including the difficult parts, because that would be my reality and it's disheartening when you think something is so easy that a person on a video gets it perfect the first try but you can't. Your video is more helpful because you showed the issues you ran into and how you still salvaged it. Thanks!

[@HarmonyHillsHomeandGarden]

Thanks Gigi! yes, you could definitely make smaller ones in smaller eggs and avoid the problems I had. but I wanted big ones!!!! hahaha. :-)

[@DonnasCreationsandMore]

You can use any size egg and cover bottom in any cardboard or cardstock and just add glitter to eggs, but now they sell glitter ones. I've picked them up at Easter on clearance, then just add a bottom.

[@RH-rz9tp]

I saw someone make these and she said to spray the inside with water before you fill it

[@lucyhernandez3408]

you can put clay

[@judymckerrow6720]

Great job Jenny. Those look good enough to eat. We have anymore candy videos to look forward to? 🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄💚🙃

[@HarmonyHillsHomeandGarden]

Thank you! Yes, a few more still to come.

[@thepassionfruitdiariessuzi6978]

You have to drill a small hole

[@tinuswalther5940]

Bedank .ik vind het heel mooie

[@HarmonyHillsHomeandGarden]

Thank you!

[@pattikulesza6203]

Pam spray the shell?

[@HarmonyHillsHomeandGarden]

Getting them out was the easy part, so I'm not sure that's needed.

[@ginawalters5682]

Try spraying the eggs with cooking oil first

[@willaerley7140]

Your fake food looks better than what I actually eat.

[@HarmonyHillsHomeandGarden]

hahahaha!
