We're busy decking the halls with greens and berries, trimming the trees with glistening ornaments and lights, and baking sweet treats with the little ones.

 

Speaking of little ones, I remember making gumdrop trees when I was little, now I make them with my kids, but use green jellybeans and red Skittles for ornaments.

 

These are perfect for a holiday playdate, easy to assemble, and are tons of fun to create! Make a bunch, put them on a platter and you've created a holiday centerpiece!

 

 

 

For one tree you'll need:

 

1 styrofoam base

1 tub vanilla frosting

2 cups green jellybeans

1/2 red Skittles

swirly lollipop

3 cups coconut flakes for decorative snow
