Purim Treat Holder

Here is what you need:

white glue
scissors
masking tape
paper fastener
three 9-ounce plastic cups in two or three different colors
two wiggle eyes
black yarn
marker
metallic trim

Here is what you do:

1. Cut away about one third of the side of one cup. Turn it upside down and place it over a cup of a different color to look like a cape. This will be the body of the figure.

2. Cut the top two thirds of the last cup into points to look like a crown.

3. Wrap the remaining base of the cup with masking tape to make a head beneath the crown.

4. Poke a hole through the center of the bottom of the head cup. Poke a hole through the bottom of the two cups that form the body. Attach the head to the body using a paper fastener placed through the holes in the cups.

5. Glue black yarn hair on the head. If you are making the king cup, glue on a beard also. Glue on two wiggle yes. Use the markers to add any other facial features you wish.

6. Glue metallic trim around the base of the crown above the hair.

Fill the crown with candy treats and give it to someone special for Purim.
