Fun and Easy DIY Christmas Craft: Toblerone Penguins

Christmas Penguin Craft

Toblerone Penguins

Here is a cute Christmas craft that doesn’t involve a lot of work and that is fun to make as well. This is an easy craft that kids would enjoy putting together as well. I picked up several Toblerone bars at Walgreens while they were on sale. If you’ve never tried a Toblerone bar, you have been missing out. These scrumptious chocolate bars are one of my favorites and I always enjoy giving them out as stocking stuffers during the holiday season. Anyway, to add an extra special touch, I thought it would be fun to decorate them as a cute Christmas craft. That way they could be used to decorate for the holidays and then later opened and thoroughly enjoyed. YUM! 🙂 At first, I thought it would be cute to decorate them as a reindeer, but I couldn’t quite wrap my brain around how to do it with the material I had on hand, so I came up with the idea of these penguins instead . They turned out to be easy to decorate as well once I got started on them.
