This year as a little Valentine gift for family and friends I thought we would make some Bon Bon’s and fill them with chocolates. This is a fun craft for the kid’s to make and Miss K loved getting involved!
To make these you will need:
- toilet rolls
- coloured tissue paper
- ribbon
- selotape
- chocolates
- puffy fabric hearts
We grabbed most of our supplies from a discount $2 shop and supermarket. To decorate them I used some puffy fabric hearts I found but you could decorate them however you want, maybe even wrapping them in some free Valentine’s printables would look really cute!
It only takes a few minutes to put them together. First we wrapped a square of tissue around each roll and held it in place with selotape. Then popped some Hershey’s Kisses in each roll and twisted the paper at each end, holding in place I tied the ribbons and then stuck a little heart on the front of each one. It’s that easy!
This month I am linking my Valentine’s Day post up with the Collectively Creative “Lovey Dovey” edition run by Kelly over at Cobwebs, Cupcakes & Crayons. Be sure to check out all the other blogs involved for some awesome “Lovey Dovey” posts!
I love these!! Very cute!
(Question though — is there a reason why my Collectively Creative link is not part of your list ?? Just curious)

So cute! I love sweet and simple ideas like this! Thanks so much for participating in this month’s Collectively Creative, Carly!
Thanks Kelly
Omg LOVE THIS! I’ve been saving up toilet paper rolls for a toilet paper wreath/wall design, but it’s taking so long and I still have so few that I think this would be the perfect use for them! I am definitely going to try this–thanks for the fab idea!!
Awesome! Thanks for stopping by
Awww, these look great. I love that it’s a kid-friendly craft too. I may have to do something similar to this for Easter with Jon’s neices and nephews. Thanks for the inspiration.
Thanks Leah! Hope you have fun trying out the idea
These look awesome! Love the ribbon
Thanks Alana!
Such a fun post — this looks like a great project for the kids to do! And it involves Hershey Kisses, which we might have to “test” to make sure they are “good enough” to go into the rolls.
I so wish I could bring treats to my daughter’s school b/c I would so make these in a heartbeat. What a great idea and just so simple to do from household items.
Nice looking! And yummy
These are so festive and fun! Makes me think of New Year’s celebrations of old….
Loved being a part of Collectively Creative with you this month. And thanks for your sweet comment on my post!
My son and I loved these! We like to make things for special occasions ans put them away in the wool room to use again. These will be perfect for Valentines day plus the fortune cookies.
Delightful craft to make! Love the idea! ~Thea
Reblogged this on devaneiosdolhar.
What a great idea! I love repurposing items…never throwing away our toilet paper rolls again
How adorable! And it’s a great craft for kids to help with. Thanks for the idea!
