Step 1: Step 1: Glue 2 Pool Noodles Together
First, we are going to start by making the swirl of the lollipop.
- The first thing you have to do is glue 2 pool noodles together, this will serve as the swirl of our lollipop.

Using a cutting utensil cut a small hole into the swirl to insert the PVC.
- We recommend a Utility Knife, start by marking a spot on the swirl and cut with circular motions to your desired depth.

- Apply glue to the hole that you cut, ensuring that you have an even application.
- Then insert the PVC into the hole ensuring that it is in contact with the glue.

Insert the lollipop into a clear Basket Bag and close it shut with a bow.
- Ensure that the lollipop is in the center of the bag.
