This is a really cute idea. I think more pictures of the process would be super helpful! It might seem silly, but I could use a little more hand-holding to get me from the picture in Step 1 to the picture in the intro.

Unfortunately I didn't have enough hands in the process to take more pictures, I will definitely figure out a way to do that on the next craft though.

Is there anything in particular I can help you with?

Off the top of my head, I measured the width of the cellophane bags and drew it on the back of my card stock; then I doubled it for the length. Once I cut out the rectangle, I folded it in half and lined in up to the bag above the candies. Putting a staple towards the bottom of the paper.

From there it's going with your hearts desire with the decorating.

Thanks so much for the tip to add more pictures though!
