Lollipop Pots! Fancying up the Front Step
As you may already know, I love to fancy up my front step for each holiday. I decorate for Halloween, Fall, Christmas and now Valentine’s Day. For my Valentine’s Day porch I worked on a simple, I mean really simple little project, but sometimes simple is best. I made these Lollipop Pots! They look so cute from the street. A nice little pop of colour in all the brown slushy mess that is our winter!
Here’s a quick tutorial on how to make them!

I found these sparkly hearts at Michaels for 50% off – so they were each $4.99, then I bought 2 dowels for $0.99 each, and some ribbon at $2.99. For yarn that I used to wrap the dowels, I just used some that I already had on hand. So the total cost was under $15! |

The first thing I did for these Lollipops was to embellish the dowels. I didn’t feel like painting them, so I wrapped them each in some grey yarn. You could use any colours that you like…red would look great!

Now that the dowels are done, we are ready to assemble! |
 |
|
Using a glue gun, I glued the dowel onto the backs of each of the hearts, then used the pretty heart ribbon and tied it onto the rod. |
 |
|
Then I just pushed the rod into my pot, and voila, it looks like a lollipop! So cute |
