Author Notes: Here's a cute, easy to make Valentine's Day party favor.
Supplies:

For each favor, you will need:
1 roll of Wild Cherry Livesavers® Candy
6 inch bamboo skewer
1 - 1 1/2 inch wooden heart
drill with a small drill bit
piece of red foil paper approximately 1 1/2 inches long and 5 inches wide.
transparent tape
scissors
craft glue
red paint
small paintbrush

Instructions:

Drill a small hole in the heart's indentation. Paint the heart red and set it aside to dry.

Fringe the foil paper by cutting narrow strips along the width, about 1 inch deep. Apply a small amount of the transparent tape to one end of the uncut portion of foil paper. Attach tape to blunt end of skewer. Twist foil paper around skewer and fasten with another piece of tape to form the arrow ?feather?.

Finishing:
Poke pointed end of bamboo skewer through center of candy roll, apply dot of glue to tip of skewer and secure into hole in painted heart.
