Gum Drop Garland

Have you ever made gum drop garland?? If not, DON'T! I thought it would be so easy........the line gets so "gummed up" and the line easily cuts through the drop that you have to ever so easily pull the drop down the line perfectly straight. Too funny -- some how I signed myself up to do this for our MOPS (Mothers of Preschoolers) table decorations. Just warning you in case you get suckered in to doing it :)

Of course it is too late -- but I had an idea. Maybe if you put oil (cooking oil/Crisco) on the needle and thread it would slip through without gumming up! Oh, well -- it's Christmas. Being sticky comes with season...I love you, MOM
