Our final teacher appreciation week craft are these sweet sock cupcakes!
Suggested supplies -
Fuzzy socks
Rubber bands
12 x 12 card stock (pattern or color of your choice)
Craft glue
Plain and decorative edge scissors
Cellophane bags
Ribbon
Gift tags
Step 1 -
Place one sock on top of the other and roll from the toe end to the open end. Secure near the bottom with a rubber band. Pull the layers from the top to achieve the icing/frosting look.
Step 2 -
Make a pattern from scrap paper for your cupcake wrapper. I started with a regular food cupcake liner and enlarged until it fir the sock frosting. Then trace your pattern onto 12 x 12 card stock (you can get three per page).
Step 3 -
Cute the liners out and trim the top with your chosen decorative scissors.
Step 4-
Apply craft glue to the edge as shown and press the liner together to form the cupcake cup.
Step 5 -
Insert the frosting socks into the liners, put into cellophane bags and tie with a pretty ribbon.
These can be given for any occasion by just changing the gift tag wording.
