1. First measure 6 inches on the
papertowel tube and mark with a pen. Then cut at the mark, to get a
tube 6 inches long. You can throw out the short end.

2.
Measure three inches (halfway) into the 6 inch tube and mark this, and
cut along the mark. You now have two tubes 3 inches long.

3.
Cut a piece of wrapping paper approximately 8.5 inches by 11 inches
(same size as a standard sheet of paper). Place the two tubes on this
paper, leaving a one inch gap between the two pieces.

4. Roll the paper around the tube, and tape
shut. Do not put the tape over the 1 inch section gap, or it might be
harder to "crack" the popper open. Then, twist one end of the wrapping
paper at the end of the tube, and secure with curling ribbon. Curl the
ribbon with the edge of the scissors.

5.
Add your candy and goodies into the tube. Then, tie up the other end
and add the ribbon. Happy 2008!
