I am a member of the Collective Bias® Social Fabric® Community. These cute Edible Paint Dots with #VIPFruitFlavors have been compensated as part of a social shopper amplification for #CollectiveBias and its advertiser.
I have been working on painting the kids’ bathroom for about a month now. I started out of the gate awesome. I knocked out the wainscoting in a day. That’s impressive for someone with triplets. But since then, I haven’t been able to get any part of it accomplished. I haven’t been able to get much of anything accomplished. I feel like I only get to concentrate on any one thing for fifteen minutes at a time before I get interrupted. Can I get an “Amen?” This inspired me to make a fun treat for my daughter’s teachers. I imagine if there’s anyone else out there who doesn’t get to concentrate on much, it’s a preschool teacher. So in honor of them and my lack of painting, I give you Edible Paint Dots– a fun, colorful gift that can be made easily with the #VIPFruitFlavors in the Skittles & Starburst 30 Pack from Sam’s Club! I’ve also included a free label printable for you– because I have your back like that.
Supplies Needed to Complete this Project:
- Small Clear Empty Paint Can- I find these at art and craft stores.
- Skittles & Starburst 30 Pack from Sam’s Club
- New Paintbrush
- Edible Paint Dots Free Printable
- Glue or Glue Dots
Begin by opening up the big Skittles and Starburst 30 Pack and separating the Skittles and Starburst packages. Eat one package of Skittles. That last part is optional.
Open four packages of the red Skittles and divide the colors. Open four packages of Starburst candies and unwrap each of the orange, red, and yellow Starburst candies. Begin by layering the orange Starburst candies in the bottom of the paint can. Fit as many as possible in the bottom. Since we are placing squares in the bottom of a circle, this won’t be perfect.
Pour the orange Skittles over the Starburst layer.
Lay the red Starburst candies over the orange Skittles layer.
Pour the red Skittles over the Starburst candies. Continue this with the yellow layers, then top with the green and purple Skittles. Tightly close lid. Print off the Edible Paint Dot label, cut it out, and glue it on the front. Click the link in the previous sentence to download the label, or right click the photo below. The label is sized in a 2″ by 2″ dimension.
Add a little paintbrush embellishment to the top. I used glue dots to attach the paintbrush.
Creating these cute gifts for several deserving people is easy with the Skittles & Starburst 30 Pack from Sam’s Club. Found in the candy aisle, the variety of fruity flavors in this huge pack makes quenching everyone’s sweet tooth a cinch.
As evidenced above, there was only one layer left on the pallet at my local Sam’s Club. Maybe I wasn’t the only one crafting {and not painting} this weekend?
What would YOU create with the Skittles and Starburst 30 Pack?
SO fun! I love how you layered the skittles and the starburst. These are two of my all-time favorite candies!! YUM!!!
I like them both, too, but I am a definite sucker for Skittles!
This is beyond adorable! It would a cute little favor for an art-themed party, too!
Thanks Keri! My daughter had a an art themed party a few years ago- I wish I had thought of it then!
I could use one of these at my right hand while I craft 🙂 Love the bright photos!
This is such an adorable idea!
SO cute!! Such a great gift idea!
I don’t know if we would craft anything… They would most likely get eaten first!
This is such a cute gift for a teacher! Thanks for sharing! #client
Okay, this is so cute! Perfect for the little artist!
Very cute! Maybe one could lick the paintbrush and then use it fun dip style? Ha ha 🙂 Fun little gift!
That title fooled me 😉 So cute!!
Oh lets see?… I would paint a rainbow in my mouth!!
Love me some Skittles.
what a wonderful, sweet idea!
So cute! I too wish I’d had these for y daughter’s art party a couple years ago. The OCD person in me would have wanted to place rounds of parchment between the layers to keep them for sticking, but then they would not have been nearly as cute, lol!!!
this is such a great idea. We have been sending treats to our sons teacher every week since nov and now I have one more fun idea to add to our list. thanks for sharing and yes eating that one pack is not optional its a must.
Fun! I love how you added the little paintbrush to the top as the finishing touch 🙂 #client
This is super creative! Such a fun idea!
Amen, sister! Definitely hard to get things done with triplets around. This I know!! What a cute gift. I’m sure the teacher will love it! 🙂
Too cute! Since we’re in the middle of a reno, this would be the perfect treat for the entire family (we’ve earned a treat surving a reno!)
