I am not a crafty mom. That’s why I have a food blog and not a craft blog. God, who has a huge sense of humor, has given me a crafty, artistic daughter. So, I’m slowly conquering my tendency to start cleaning up art supplies within 2 minutes of getting them out, trying to embrace the inherent messiness of crafts with kids and, really, just get over myself.
I get Family Fun magazine and am honestly impressed at the creative yet reasonable crafts they have in each issue. Most don’t require 5 trips to the craft store and skill with wood working or metal welding like other craft magazines.
I saw this craft in the February Issue and this thought process followed:
Spoons with white chocolate and sprinkles. Hummmmm.
I can do that.
Sprinkles are easily contained on a cookie sheet.
Melted white chocolate is easily contained in a ziploc bag.
Only two stores to get supplies: craft store for ribbon, clear bags, and Wilton sprinkles, grocery store for spoons and white chocolate.
I can do that.
A craft the kids will enjoy, one that is good for gifts, one that only requires one trip to one craft store, one that can be done for $15?
I can do that.
And I did. We did. And, dare I say, it was fun.
In process (with some neighbor friends).

Are you a crafty person?
Love it! They turned out so pretty. I do like the Family Fun magazine, I need to renew my subscription.
Those are so cute! Do you think my husband would enjoy making this craft?!
Nope, I’m not crafty at all…but I LOVE white chocolate! I don’t get why so many people hate it….oh well, more for me.
Those are adorable! I saw those in the magazine too–they always have such cute, fun ideas. Oh, and the “I’m not crafty” spiel? I don’t buy it for one second.
What a fun idea! And yes, I love crafts.
I actually saw these in Family Fun and yours are WAY cuter! You totally ARE crafty!
We love ours… Alex is a HUGE white chocolate fan, so I just had to share!
Look at how cute these are! I think this may have to be a project for Meghan’s preschool teachers. Thank you!
OH These are so cute!!! I have not found a white chocolate that is dairy free yet….so my son has never tried it!!
