INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Begin by spray painting your candle holders and battery-operated candles (if desired) and let dry.
  2. Once dry, begin to assemble your PEEPS® candle holders by using the serrated knife to cut a slit through the back of the PEEPS® Chick or Bunny about half-way towards the front.
  3. Pull open the seam of the PEEPS® Chick or Bunny which you just created and wrap it around the rod of the candle holder.
  4. Repeat to fill up the rod.
  5. Decorate your candle holders by tying the ribbon in a bow and hot glue to the front of your candle holder.  Optionally, you may tie the ribbon around the candle holder.
  6. Add your battery-operated candles and your PEEPS® candle holders are ready to adorn your spring tablescape or mantel!

Note: Use extreme caution when using hot glue. Completed craft is for decorative purposes only. Candy used in craft should not be eaten.
