Chanuka Decor for $0
Last year I had an idea to create chains out chocolate coin wrappers (for those who dont know chocolate coins are everywhere for Hanukkah!) Unfortunately, despite the fact that I had everyone I know saving them for me, it took practically all of Hanukkah to collect enough! So I packed them away in my crafts box and saved them for this year!
What you need: A TON of chocolate coin wrappers Something to poke holes with (I used a tack)
A massive spool of floss (or a normal size one) You can of course use string but when your mother in law is a dentist and sends you multiple spools of 500 meters of floss you get creative :) Also I love the irony of stringing chocolate wrappers on floss.
First you just flatten out the coins using your nail or you can use a coin.
Poke holes on each side of the flattened coin and just thread them on the string!
I made two rows but I am considering adding a third!
And there you have it; easy, free, homemade Hanukkah decorations! Warning: You may gain ten pounds in the process!
