Hope everyone is having a nice long weekend! We woke up to heavy rain today, but later in the day the sun came out. Crazy weather. If you follow my blog, you know that I love all the neat Hershey's Kisses projects that Brenda Quintana makes. This one was no exception! I made some for our picnic that got rained out. We ended up having it indoors. Check out her video - Watermelon Slices. The best thing was that I had all the punches she used. Here are the little tents for the kisses.
Then I used my punches to make the watermelon slices. In her video she scores them separately, but I glued them together and then scored them. I had better luck that way.
Here are some of the little seeds I had punched. Yes, they are tiny!!
I tried gluing them on, but decided there must be a better way. I then remember this glue sponge I had just ordered. I don't remember where I saw this, but it works great! For these little pieces, I used my tweezers and just tapped them on the sponge and they stuck on the CS great!
I did one side at a time and then the other. With the glue sponge it went really fast.
Here is the final product!
Next I put the Hershey's Kisses inside. Of course, I had to taste them to make sure they weren't stale!! I think they turned out so cute!
Thanks for stopping by,
Nancy
