Supplies-

• plastic animals
• plastic candle holders
• drill with 1/8″ drill bit
• pliers
• gold spray paint

Step one-For the plastic animals, you can use any kind…Keep in mind the size of the cake or cupcake you are sticking it on. Animals with a flat back are easiest to use.

Step two-Hold the animal with the pliers and drill a hole straight down. The hole just has to be deep enough for the holder to fit.

Step three-Spray paint the animals in a few light coats, rotating them to cover all sides. Note: She used gold (w/o primer) and worked fine. Be sure to use a plastic spray paint or a primer for plastic and always test one first.

Step four-paint the candle holders to match. Let dry.

Step five-let your inner party animal out!
