How To Make A Santa Treat Cup

MATERIALS NEEDED –

• red cups
• black electrical tape
• gold art tape (or you can use yellow electrical tape – that looks cute too!)
• easy Christmas treats (our favorites are listed below if you need inspiration.)

STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS –

Wrap a long piece of black electrical tape around the middle of the cup.

Cut four equal pieces of gold/yellow tape and place them over the black strip of tape in the shape of a square to form the belt buckle.

Now your cups are ready to be filled!

(Wouldn’t these be cute as Lumieres with tea lights lining your walkways?)
