Lifesaver Pacifiers

Today a friend asked me if I had any cute ideas for party favors for a baby shower coming up this Sunday.

This is what I told her:

- Fill a small, clear, plastic favor bag (or small, clear take-out box)

with pink or blue jelly beans 1/2 way

- Tie bag closed with a pink/or blue polka dot ribbon

(for box, tie to handle)

- Thread one side of the ribbon through lifesaver pacifier (see directions below)

- Tie a bow around lifesaver pacifier allowing it to dangle in middle of bow

**At the baby shower, have these candy dishes lying around!**

Such a fun,cute and creative idea!

Your guests will sure to take notice!

Directions for lifesaver pacifiers:

1. 1

   Unwrap all the Lifesavers.

2. 2

   Take one Lifesaver and apply a thin layer of frosting around the inner hole.

3. 3

   Grab a jellybean and place one of the short, ROUND ends in it, so the length of the jellybean is coming out of the hole.

4. 4

   Flip the Lifesaver over.

5. 5

   On the other side, take the frosting and make a slightly thicker (yet still on the thin side) layer of frosting around the inner hole/center, and place another Lifesaver perpendicular attaching edge of 2nd Lifesaver to center of 1st Lifesaver with jellybean attached to it.

6. 6

   Place on flat surface and allow to dry.

7. 7

   After drying for 3-4 hours, thread ribbon through the hole of the 2nd Lifesaver and tie in a knot.
