Tootsie Roll Pop Ghosts

My Mom used to make these tootsie roll pop ghosts every Halloween. They were a tradition in my home growing up and have been a tradition in our home as well. As room mother in both Kate and Kyle's elementary schools K-5th grade, you can imagine how many of these I've made!

Here's what you'll need

white square napkins
1 bag of tootsie roll pops
1 black sharpie fine point pen
ribbon
scissors

Start by unfolding your napkin. Hold your pop unside down (as shown above) and center it in the middle of the two napkin folds.

pinch the napkin tightly around the base of the pop


cut a 12 inch piece of ribbon and tie it around the ghosts "head" This can be a little tricky until you get the hang of it.



using your sharpie marker, draw two dots for eyes and there you have it, a darling little ghost! These make great party favors, gifts etc. Have fun with the quick, easy and fun craft.


BOO!
