We’re having a small get together today and we thought about giving everyone in the family a little love token. I initially wanted to make chocolates and flavor them with orange or mint (simply because I love chocolate orange & chocolate mint! LOL) but I did not have enough time to make them so I ended up using local lollipops. I’ll save the chocolates for another time. :)

Our Valentine’s Day Lollipop Love Tokens:

Here’s how to make them:

1. Download the free printable Lollipop Cover Template I made for you (just because I love you! lol) and print them on A4 size colored paper. You can also use plain white paper, about 80gsm or higher, and let your kids color the template. That would be a nice project for them this V-day.

2. Buy your lollies. It would be best to use lollipops that have longer sticks but the printable template above can also be used in regular lollipops. I bought these at our local market in Alabang. Not bad for a P10-pack of 12 lollies.

3. Cut out the pattern. Use a sharp cutter to cut the ears and the X marks.

4. Push the stick of the lollipop into the X marks in the pattern. The hole at the back of the pattern should be the first one in the stick. I’ll try to make a video if you can’t get the sequencing. lol. :) Anyway, it should look something like this:

and end this way:

5. Glue the tags included on the printable Lollipop Cover Template.

I started only with a few pieces.

But as expected, I ended up making a lot. 30 pieces to be exact. :)
