I know why it took 35 mins. for a short project. You don't teach us how to throw a project together, you teach us how to make it beautiful....thank you for your long lessons. Sincerely, Judy

[@CoriDahmen]

You’re too kind Judy. Thank you for making me feel better about being long winded ❤

[@labgirlreed]

One of the many things I enjoy about your videos is that I feel like I’m sitting right next to you while we craft. Your instructions are precise but not intimidating so that the project is very doable.😊 Thanks for sharing this great idea for gift giving.❤

[@CoriDahmen]

Doable projects with the win! Thank you for joining and crafting along with me ❤

[@RichardMarquez-iq9yq]

Hello dearest 👋. How are you doing today? How is your weather over there?

[@Mercymemercer]

❤ You had me at “Lindor Truffle Balls”.

[@CoriDahmen]

Christmas chocolates are just happy things 😊

[@debsyg4974]

I love how you showed us in easy steps how to make these gorgeous little candy holders. I think the idea of being able to reuse/repurpose them after they have been opened is brilliant. Many thanks for a great project and video. Debs. 😊

[@CoriDahmen]

You are so welcome and I'm happy to hear that they'll work for you 😊

[@kateconrad7463]

Cori - these are just precious! Your creativity never ceases to amaze me. I’m glad your video took the extra time to explain the steps, gave us some options for using these, and tips on paper and tools and where to purchase them. Thank you 🙏🏼

[@CoriDahmen]

Thank you, Kate and I’m happy the extra details were helpful ❤

[@SusieMathews]

We used to make these for the folks in the nursing home when I was a kid. They were never this pretty ❤ Thanks so much for elevating this wonderful craft 😊

You are so welcome and thank you for the kind comment 😊

[@dawnklein106]

How cool is this!? I’m going to make a get well banner for a friend having surgery in January. Fill the bags with different candies and she’ll have something to open each day as she heals. You are an inspiration. Thank you!

[@CoriDahmen]

What a beautiful idea Dawn! Changing the paper can turn these into just about anything ❤

[@dawnklein106]

I thought this was such a novel way to count down the days of Advent, that I made 100 of them! A set for four different families. Your crafts have traveled far, to Christmas trees across this country. Thank you for the time and effort that went into this tutorial.

These are addictive! I made 120 over the weekend and will surely make more. I didn’t sew, but used art glitter glue and they were so quick and easy.

You are so welcome and thank you 😊

[@EarthGuardian]

Absolutely love these! Thank you so much! That "assembly sewing" hack is absolutely brilliant 👌🏻

[@CoriDahmen]

I'm happy to hear that it was helpful!

[@onthetrailcreations8638]

Chain sewing like that is a common quilting technique, saves a TON of thread if you usually sew short things, sometimes you waste more than you use 😅 And saves bobbin winding and potential thread tangles. Great tip!

[@CoriDahmen]

Bonus, it makes creating a banner super easy 😊

[@chrispalynchuk5951]

Always always always love your projects ... creatively crazy craft!

[@CoriDahmen]

Thank you! 😊

[@kerynokeeffe9133]

Awesome project, Cori, with these beautiful papers from the kit! Worth every minute of the 35 minutes!! 😘

[@CoriDahmen]

LOL. Thank you, Keryn. Maybe a summer countdown project where you are? Be safe and well!~

[@PrairieWindStudios]

I’m definitely doing this my first grade class. There are certainly days “I need two candies” also. Lol 😂

[@ellahmoon9103]

These are adorable! Perfect for many holidays & occasions! You explained all the details of how to make them very well. Thank you so very much!

[@MarieWilletts]

Very unique! Pretty little candy wraps. Thank you for demonstrating how to make them.

[@CoriDahmen]

My pleasure and thank you!

[@onedaysoon58]

Love your candy wraps. Such a cute idea, especially cutting the bottoms off when you have eaten the treats to use again. Thanks for showing and sharing your contribution to the collaboration x

[@CoriDahmen]

I'm happy the idea inspired you 😊

[@cathieramey9946]

Using the candy wrap in your journal and the wooden base for the Christmas tree 😍. I feel so lucky to be able to watch and learn from such talented young people. Thank you so much.

[@carolwilson8944]

These are so pretty, and a lovely project for children. Love the vignette idea.Thank you for this tutorial.

[@CoriDahmen]

You are so welcome and thank you!

[@TubeYouLena]

The small Lit Christmas Tree with a stand/holder for décor is such an appealing and doable idea, totally adopting that. And to add the functionality of an advent calendar to it is just brilliant (storing this idea on my dedicated Pinterest board). Candies in the triangular ‘wrappers’ (I will make the containers with my mixed-media papers) with numbers (those I can make with my molds and Plaster of Paris or paper clay) on labels … Fun!

[@CoriDahmen]

I love that you can easily alter this project to suit your creative style 😊

[@lindasheridan5065]

Great idea for a different Advent Calendar, despite my family being adults now they still like an Advent Calendar and this is just a perfect way to do it. 😀

[@CoriDahmen]

Advent calendars are just happy things, no matter the age 😊

Thank you and lucky you. Grands are simply the best things, ever ❤️

[@carolefroelich4109]

Just when I thought I had caught up to Christmas prep, along comes Cori with an adorable project. Thanks so much!
