This is such a fun project. The kids would love to do them too. Cut the wrappers out and wrap the Hershey Nuggets...it couldn't be easier. You can pack them in groups of four, six, with a maximum of eight in a pretzel bag which can be purchased at Walmart, or any craft store that carries cake decorating supplies or online. The cost is minimal.

Make sure you have the kids help. It's a fun and easy project for them and you. Don't forget to make some Corn Beef and Cabbage too...LOL!
Hershey Nugget Wrappers
Nugget Wrappers...are so fun to make. An easy little project for the special people in your life. The "printable" comes with instructions on making the nugget wrappers, the tray for the nugget wrappers and a topper for each. These can be printed on regular copy paper.

If you want, you can just fill a candy dish with them. Wrap it in cellophane and give the candy dish with the nuggets in it as a special St. Patrick's Day gift. It takes just a little time, but makes holidays just a little bit special.
All instructions are included in the printable.
You will need the following for this project
- Hershey Nuggets (your choice of flavor)
- Pretzel Bags (can be purchased at Walmart, any craft store with cake decorating items, or online
- Printables from Handmade by Hoffy on this post
- scissors,
- glue or double faced tape
- ribbon, jute, wire ties, ribbon or anything you want to tie the bag closed with
- copy paper for printables
- construction paper for trays
- cardstock for label (opt.)
Instructions for Making Nugget Wrappers and Tray
- Although I have included the instructions for the nugget wrappers in the printable, I thought I would also include the instructions on this post. The wrappers are pretty easy. Just print the ones you want and cut them out.
- The tray is very easy. If you don't have a Scor pal, you can easily use a ruler. Cut the size that you are interested in...1 7/8"X 4 1/4" for a four pack of nuggets, 1 7/8"X 6 1/4" for a six pack, and 1 7/8"X 8 1/2" for an eight pack.
- Score the construction paper or cardstock 1/4" on both long sides. You can use the rounded end of a paper clip to score the paper if you don't have a Scor pal. Once scored, fold on score line to give each side an edge where the nuggets will be held in place.
- Place a piece of double faced tape down the center of the tray or a dot of glue....whatever you have available. Then place nuggets in the tray. The tape or glue holds them in place so they don't move around. If using glue, wait until the glue is dry before you put in to the pretzel bag.
- Insert your tray of nuggets into the pretzel bag. (These can be purchased at Walmart, craft stores that have cake decorating items or online. They are very reasonable.
- Cut out the topper and make a hole at the top of the topper. You can use yarn, ribbon, jute, or whatever you have on hand to seal the bag. The pretzel bags do come with silver ties also.
- And that's it...pretty easy and very creative!
