Teaching Thursdays: Make This Adorable Gumball Machine


Do you have a sweet tooth? I know I do! My sweet tooth was really bad when I was a kid. I was a magnet to anything sweet. Now a lot older and a little wiser, I have calmed my sugar cravings, and indulge just once in awhile. My sugar craving started to rise again when I caught a glimpse of this adorable gumball machine. This incredible craft was created by Sherrie Ragsdale. It is so cute. This is an easy to make project that all skill levels will be able to create. Make this adorable gum ball machine in only a few simple steps. You can add anything to the inside, and if your not a candy lover this can also be a fish tank. To do this just add a plastic fish. What are some of your favorite candies?
