Sorry for the blurry picture. I couldn't get it to focus. These are so much fun to make. Here is the link to Tami White's video tutorial. Thanks for sharing Tami. http://stampwithtami.com/blog/2010/0...ntine-mailbox/
They are SO easy. But only if you use the Hershey's Nuggets. I tried to do it with hard candies as well as Dove. They're just not the right size. I also changed the measurements. The strip that goes around to make the mailbox I changed it to 1 3/8" wide, so that it covers the candy completely. The black and red one was made using her measurements.
Another tip. Use the large corner rounder. The small one makes it too square and then the back part doesn't fit properly. I also cut the flag stick down to 2".
