I'm in full on craft show mode right now...next show is on the 14th and I have a ton of new ideas to work on!
These are York Peppermint Patties! I found them at Target...but sad to say that I don't think they have them packaged in the foil covers anymore. I think that they are now packaged in little individual plastic bags....so more more peppermint patties after this batch!
Anyway, these are super easy! I had a bunch of left-over chocolate covered pretzel rod bags from Halloween and saw a post on SCS from Cindy and Maria at Crafty Creations that used them for the Peppermint Patty wheels - PERFECT FIT! And they are packaged so different too - that I hope they are great sellers! Would make cute stocking stuffers, teacher/co-worker or neighbor gifts.

Hey ladies...thanks for your nice comments!
These are so easy too.....got the pretzel bags at Joann's but Mike's had them as well. Sold them for $3.00 at my last show....took 35 with me and came home with only 4!

These are adorable. I made some similar ones, but haven't put them out at a craft show yet. I saw them on a blog somewhere, I think it was inking idaho.
BTW, the peppermint pattys, if you buy the holiday ones, they are in little packages now, but if you buy them on the regular candy aisle (non seasonal) they are still in the traditional foil.
I actually made mine with the Palmer's candy (bought them in bulk at winco), it's a lot cheaper, and they are rice krispy and cookies & cream, and other varieties so the kids will eat them.
