Popcorn Cake Pops

My other son's teacher LOVES cake pops so I decided to make her popcorn cake pops for her end of the school year teacher gift.  I made chocolate cake pops and dipped them in melted white chocolate with a few drops of yellow chocolate to give it a light yellow ( butter) look.  I found the container at the dollar tree and placed a styrofoam block at the bottom of the container to hold the cake pops in place.  When the chocolate dried I tied a red ribbon around them and put some yellow and white gift wrap stuff at the bottom so you couldn't see the styrofoam.

Birthday Balloon Wreath

For my son's 9th birthday I decided to make this balloon wreath that I saw online at pinterest ( don't you just love that website)  To make this easy wreath you will need the following:

-A straw wreath ( I found this one at michael's and used a 40% coupon)

-Balloons, this wreath took about 13 bags of 25 balloons found at the Dollar Tree

-Pins, I used regular straight pens or you can use floral pins ( but they are pretty expensive an you will need a lot to complete this wreath)

-Pipe cleaners for some extra decoration ( Optional)

(Wreath making supplies)

After you gather your supplies simply place the unblown balloons on the balloon with the pins and continue until the wreath is covered and this is what you end up with :
