by on Aug 25, 2021

Whether you have kids returning to school or friends who work as teachers, here’s a simple DIY gift to kick off the new school year!  

Autumn from It’s Always Autumn created this easy-to-follow tutorial for making your own candy pencil.  It’s perfect for kids or teachers alike and is sure to put a smile on a few faces. (Nothing like starting things off with a few warm fuzzies, I say!)  

To make your own candy pencils, gather up the following:

  • Rolo’s
  • Hershey Hugs (or Kisses)
  • Yellow and Pink Cardstock
  • Foil
  • Adhesives (double-sided tape or glue stick, plus glue dots or a hot glue gun)

Then hop, skip, or jump on over to It’s Always Autumn to see how all the parts come together!
