    This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of The Hershey Company. All opinions are 100% mine.

    We all love Hershey's, right? Hershey's is always at the forefront of my holiday baking, between Hershey's Kisses in my peanut butter thumbprint cookies to Hershey's Cocoa Powder in my hot chocolate, my baking cabinet is always piled high with their chocolaty goodness when the holidays roll around. Did you see myย No-Bake Hershey's Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars Recipeย last month? Well, the holiday fun doesn't end with sweet treats - that's just the beginning! Angeline and I are both traveling quite a bit this holiday season, and with it just being the two of us in the house now, we aren't going all-outย with the usualย Christmas decor. I made this cute littleย Merry Kisses Holiday Centerpieceย for our coffee table to add a little holiday flair to the house, and it was so easy!

    Merry Kisses Holiday Centerpiece Craft #NewTraditions

    You can make theย most wonderfulย time of the year evenย more wonderfulย with deliciously funย Hersheyโ€™s Kisses chocolates.ย Everyone's favorite sweetheart candies are the perfect ingredient to spread holiday cheer and build new memories with your families this holiday season. You can useย Hershey's Kissesย chocolates for so many different holiday things; recipes, crafts, DIYs, gift ideas...the possibilities are endless!

    This holiday season, start new traditions, build lasting memories and enjoy the magic of the season with your family by crafting, decorating and gifting withย Hersheyโ€™sย Kissesย chocolates!

    Letย Kissesย chocolates be yourย otherย little holiday helper this season by inspiring you and your family to create magical crafts, dรฉcor and gifts for everyone on your list! You can give this fun centerpiece as a hostess gift, or even just fill a fun decorative jar with We usedย Hersheyโ€™s Kissesย Milk Chocolate chocolates in red, green, and silver foils but you can also use other varieties fromย The Hershey Company, such as:

    • Hersheyโ€™s Kissesย Candy Cane Mint candies
    • Hersheyโ€™s Kissesย Milk Chocolates with Almonds
    • Hersheyโ€™s Kisses Special Darkย chocolates

    The supplies can be purchased at any crafts store, or perhaps even your local Walmart or Target.

    Merry Kisses Holiday Centerpiece DIY

    You will need:

    • One bag ofย Hersheyโ€™s Kisses chocolates
    • One Small to Medium Glass Hurricane-style Vase
    • Red Glitter Glue
    • Green Glitter Glue
    • Styrofoam
    • Decorative toppers, sprigs of Pointsetta, etc - have fun with it!

    Merry Kisses Holiday Centerpiece Craft #NewTraditions

    Cut a small piece of Styrofoam to fit inside the vase, as this will be the base that your toppers stick into. You'll want it to be small enough that the candy will fill in around it so that you don't see it.

    Then it's time to start filling the vase withย Hershey's Kissesย chocolates! You'll want to fill the vase about halfway before you stick the toppers in.

    Merry Kisses Holiday Centerpiece Craft #NewTraditions

    Add the toppers and make sure that they're anchored securely into the Styrofoam before adding the rest of theย Hershey's Kissesย chocolates.

    Merry Kisses Holiday Centerpiece Craft #NewTraditions

    You'll want to fill the vase all the way with Hershey's Kissesย and then push the toppers down so that there isn't any extra space between them.

    I think this just came out SO CUTE! You can leave it as it is or go a step farther and start decorating...

    Merry Kisses Holiday Centerpiece Craft #NewTraditions

    We chose to add a little red and green glitter glue to the bottom for a little extraย oomph.

    It's best to add one color at a time, allowing the first color to dry for a few minutes before applying the second line, or they'll bleed together.

      My centerpiece wouldn't last because I would totally eat all of my Hershey Kisses! That is too cute and I love how inexpensive it was to put together.

      What a deliciously creative centerpiece! It turned out so well! We love kisses so I'd have to hide it because it would be full of wrappers after my kids notice it! lol.

      This is just about the cutest centerpiece I've ever seen. I'm not sure how long it would last in my house.

      What a cute festive idea. I think all the kids would eat the candy before the night was over. ๐Ÿ™‚

      December 11, 2015 at 4:51 pm

      I love the idea of this centerpiece but I'm afraid the kisses would disappear too quickly. Maybe if I glue them together? lol

    10. Meagan says

      December 11, 2015 at 5:46 pm

      How cute is this! I have a feeling if I made it, all of the chocolate kisses would be gone in no time!

      December 11, 2015 at 7:11 pm
