We bring to your attention a master class for making beautiful watches of sweets. Feel free to attach to creativity and kids!

We will need:

  1. Cut out two circles from a thick cardboard, and then wrap the resulting pieces with paper. After that, cut out a circle of similar diameter from the foam. The thickness of the foam should not exceed the length of the sweets that you plan to use. It also follows from the cardboard to cut a strip, a width not a few millimeters greater than the thickness of the foam. Wrap it with beautiful metallized paper.
  2. On the foam plastic on both sides, glue with a glue gun both circles of cardboard. After the glue dries, glue a strip around the resulting part. The workpiece for the watch is ready. It's time to start decorating crafts with sweets. Carefully apply a drop of glue on each candy and glue them on a strip. Make sure that the distance between the candies is the same.
  3. If sweets are heavy enough, you can additionally fix them, wrapping around a beautiful ribbon. Be careful with the glue, since high temperatures can cause deformation of the tape. In this case it is better to connect the tips with a stapler. On the reverse side, decorate the dial with colored pasta and coffee beans.
  4. On the dial in a circle, glue the beads, the numbers can be marked with small colored beads or coffee beans. And a little New Year's decor crafts will not hurt. Fantasize!

If you want to make your handicraft even more practical and tasty, then the basis of foam and cardboard can be replaced with a tin box with your favorite cookies or candies. A lot of admiring the original New Year's candy-clocks, you can easily remove all the decor and invite household members to a tea party.
