Cut out 2 shapes the same as the picture. For the sides you need to see how thick or thin your candy is. Find your candy width. Make the cardboard side size 0.5 cm larger than your width. Make to same pieces. Glue the sides to the first large pieces you cut. This should form a box. Do not put cardboard on the top or bottom. Cut out a piece of cardboard the size of your top. Make that piece small enough to fit in side it. Glue it down. Cut one side of the box on the top so you can put your candy through it and the piece you just put in catches it. If you do not understand look at the pictures. Now put a cardboard piece on top so it hides the candy.

Adding Lights

You can either make a mothers day sign your self, or find one on the internet and print it. Print two for each side. Glue them down. Glue down the silver paper on the cardboard, but not the mothers day sign. There should be a hole on the bottom of the sign. Glue the battery in there so you can not see it poking out, but out just a tiny bit so you can turn it off or on. Attach the LED to the battery wires. Glue the LED near the battery. It will make the sign look like it is glowing. Put your candy in the hole in the side. Velcro the hole in the sign down so it looks like the other side.


Congrats! You finished. Have fun!
