Oh my…aren't these CUTE??? One of my Stamp Club customers, Sandy Moore, was hostess this month and made one for each of the women in the Club! I wish I would have remembered to take a photo of all of them holding their pencils! They LOVED them! Thanks SO much for making them, Sandy…such a "sweet" idea!
I had not seen them before, but they are actually cardstock wrapped around a sleeve of Mentos candy with a chocolate Hershey Kiss for the pencil lead end and a Rolo for the eraser. She scored and sponged the edges to make it look like the sides of a pencil. The Black Gingham Ribbon and greeting for the Tag Punch are retired, but way too cute! I absolutely LOVE them! These would make a fun "back to school" gift for the teacher or classmates!

Oh, I have been looking for a cute little "welcome back" treat for my son's new teacher's, and this is perfect! His school does teams of 2-3 teachers plus a teacher's assistant together with a large group of students, and the last few years he's had all women, but this year there is one male teacher, so I've been at a loss for a treat that isn't too feminine. Can't wait to try and make these this weekend! (School starts next Wednesday for him). thanks for sharing!

LOVE the cute Candy Pencil Favors!! Do you know what ink color was used for the sponged edges to make it look like the sides of a pencil?? Looks like creamy caramel from where I sit, but can't see it that well. Thanks!
