1 coat hanger

Adult Supervision
Directions: Unbend the hanger and cut it in half (this will be enough
for 2 kids). Bend the 1/2 hanger into a circle leaving about 4″ at
the top to make a hook. Twist the end to make it look like a circle
with a hook on it.
Cut your curling ribbon into 8″ pieces. Fold your ribbon in half. In
the middle of that ribbon tie one piece of candy. Tie it on the end
of the candy where the paper twists. Now tie the candy with 2 knots
tightly on to the hanger. Tie the candy right next to the wire to
help cover it up. Use the scissors to curl the ribbon on each end.
Repeat the process for all your candy pieces.
It might take a few more or less than 30 depending on the size of
each candy. Suckers should be tied close to the head. You may add a
ribbon on the top to cover the hook if you want. Tip: Tie on a pair
of small scissors so people can eat the candy when they visit.
