    Hi Brilly, how are you attaching your wrapped love hearts? Glue gun or cockatil stick? The same question for blackjacks/fruit salad chewy sweets. Any ideas? Thank you xx

    Wooden sticks painted last night & today I am using the casting powder to get the sticks in the buckets. I have put a couple of stones from the garden in the bottom to act as weights.

    Casting powder doesn't seem to take too long to start setting. Had to hold it in place for around 10 mins and now its set enough for me not to have to hold it.

    Think I may paint the polystyrene balls to match the stick too. What do you think? Leave them white or paint to match colour theme?

    Have popped a picture in an album to see how they are going. Some are a tad wonky but never mind, more of a homemade feel about them haha!

    Thank you!

    I went with keeping the polystyrene balls white in the end. Didn't want to overkill the purple lol!

    They were so easy and quick to make!
