Ingredients You’ll Need

- Scissors
- Pencil
- Ruler
- Easter-themed stickers or decorations (optional)
- Lollipop sticks
- Assorted lollipops
Step-by-Step Instructions for Crafting
Start by cutting your cardstock or construction paper into rectangles measuring 3 inches by 5 inches. Use scissors and a ruler for precision.
Fold each rectangle lengthwise to create a crease down the middle, then unfold it. Mark a small circle (about 1 inch in diameter) at the center of the folded edge using a pencil.
Cut out the marked circle carefully to ensure it is neat and centered. Refold the rectangle along the crease line.
Apply double-sided tape along the edges of the rectangle, leaving the top open. Press the edges together to form a pocket.
Insert a lollipop stick through the hole, letting the lollipop rest inside the pocket. Add Easter-themed stickers or decorations for a festive look, if desired.
Repeat the process to create as many holders as needed for your lollipops.
Expert Tips for Crafting Success
- Use a hole punch for a perfectly round circle if scissors feel tricky to manage.
- Mix and match cardstock colors to create vibrant and eye-catching designs.
- Opt for double-sided tape over glue for a cleaner and quicker assembly.
