This is a fun craft to do with kids of almost any age. Theses ice cream cones go perfectly with a ginger bread house, but they also make a great craft by themselves! They are perfect for little hands, and are much easier to assemble than a gingerbread house. As with many of the DIY projects I feature, this was inspired by a pin on Pinterest (check it out here).
What You Need
I forgot to picture the green food coloring. You can use a much greater variety of candies, if you desire. |
- Sugar Cones (the pointy ones)
- Vanilla or Cream Cheese Frosting (lighter colored frosting will be easier to turn green)
- Green Food Coloring
- Assorted Candy (we used M&M's Pull-n-Peel Twizzlers, Gum Drops, & some spare candy from our gingerbread house kit)
Directions
- Add green food coloring to frosting, 1 or 2 drops at a time, until desired green is achieved.
- Place the Sugar Cones upside-down and frost them until they look somewhat like green trees. Young children may need help with this part.
- Decorate your Christmas trees with candy!
