What is a Birthday Candy Poster?
A birthday candy poster is a fun way to wish someone a “happy birthday”! Your friends are going to love receiving a poster filled with their favorite candy and you’re going to love how simple it is to put together. Simply grab a poster board, some candy and a marker, and you’re ready to create a fun and unique way to say “happy birthday”!
How Do You Make a Birthday Candy Poster?
Making a birthday candy poster is so simple, and so fun! All you need is candy, a posterboard, and markers.
You’ll start by writing your first candy saying (see below for birthday candy poster ideas) and glue your candy where it goes in the sentence. Then move on to the next saying, until you have filled your poster!
It’s so fun to make, and whoever you decide to give it to is going to love receiving such a unique gift.
How Do You Stick Candy to the Posterboard?
There are so many ways to stick candy to the poster board. One idea that works for smaller objects or to hold it temporarily is glue dots!
This might not work to hold the candy upright for a long time, though, so if you need a stickier, more long-lasting option, try hot glue or a thick tacky craft glue, like Alene’s.
