Christmas Snowman Candy Bar Printable

October 6, 2017 by Shellie Wilson

Looking for a quick, festive, and budget-friendly Christmas treat idea? This free Christmas printable chocolate wrapper is the perfect way to turn an ordinary Hershey chocolate bar into a cute, gift-ready holiday surprise in minutes. With this easy printable, you can re-cover small Hershey chocolate bars to create adorable Christmas chocolates that look handmade without any complicated crafting.

These Christmas chocolate wrappers are ideal for school gifts, classroom treats, stocking stuffers, party favors, teacher appreciation gifts, or last-minute holiday handouts. Kids love them, teachers appreciate the thought, and parents love how fast and affordable they are to make. All you need is a printer, scissors, and a little tape or glue—no special supplies required.

To use the printable, simply right-click the image below and print it at home, wrap it around a standard Hershey chocolate bar, and secure it in place. It’s that easy! This is a great low-stress Christmas craft for busy families, classrooms, or anyone who wants a festive touch without spending hours crafting.

Christmas is a wonderful time of year. It’s a time of family, love, and of course, crafts! Making Christmas crafts with children can be an incredibly special and memorable experience.

My favorite Christmas craft for children was to re-cover Hershey Chocolate bars with festive holiday designs. It was so much fun to watch their faces light up with joy as they picked out their favorite paper designs – from cheerful snowmen to festive reindeer. Not only was it a great way to get into the Christmas spirit, but it also gave us a chance to spend quality time together as a family.

We would start by carefully tearing off the labels from the Hershey Chocolate bars and setting them aside. Then, we’d choose our favorite designs of paper and cut them down to the right size. Once we had our supplies ready, it was time to get creative! We would carefully glue the paper onto the chocolate bars and add a few festive decorations, like small bells or ribbons. It was so much fun to see the chocolate bars transform from something ordinary into something magical.

After we were done making our chocolate bars, we would carefully wrap them up in colorful wrapping paper and give them to our friends and family as gifts. It was such a special way to show our appreciation for them during the holiday season.

Making Christmas crafts with children is something that I’ll always cherish. It was a great way to spend quality time together and create something unique and special that we could give to our loved ones. Every time I see a Hershey Chocolate bar, I’m reminded of those special memories.

How to Make DIY Shower Jellies – Lush-Inspired, Kid-Friendly and Naturally Scented

If your morning shower feels more like a chore than a treat, it’s time to shake things up—literally. These DIY shower jellies are bouncy, fun, and scented with natural essential oils that turn your bath or shower into a playful spa moment. Inspired by Lush but made at home for a fraction of the cost, they’re perfect for kids, tweens, or anyone who wants a little joy added to their self-care routine.

Best part? You can tailor the scent, color, and shape to match your mood, season, or even holiday gifts. I’ve made everything from zesty lemon sunbursts in summer to calming lavender moons for bedtime wind-downs. My teens love them, and even Aloo (our cheeky pup) tries to sneak a sniff.

What Are Shower Jellies?

Shower jellies are squishy, soap-based gels that clean like body wash but jiggle like jelly. They melt on skin contact, lather up beautifully, and add a bit of tactile joy to your daily scrub. Think wobbly soap that feels like toy-slash-skincare.

Ingredients (All-Natural Option)

  • 1 tablespoon unflavored gelatin (or 1 tbsp agar agar for vegan version) 
  • 3/4 cup boiling water 
  • 1/4 cup liquid castile soap (or SLS-free body wash) 
  • 10–20 drops essential oil (lavender, citrus, eucalyptus – your call) 
  • Optional: skin-safe mica powder or natural food coloring 
  • Optional: dried botanicals (lavender buds, calendula petals) 
  • Silicone molds or ice cube tray 

Instructions

Step 1: Boil & Bloom
In a heatproof bowl, whisk the gelatin into the boiling water until fully dissolved. This is your jelly base—make sure there are no lumps. If using agar agar, simmer for a couple of minutes for full gelling power.

Step 2: Add the Fun Stuff
Once smooth, stir in your liquid soap, essential oils, and any color or botanicals. I love using pink clay for a rosy tint or a few drops of lemon essential oil for a fresh, morning zing.

Step 3: Mold It
Pour your mixture into silicone molds or an ice cube tray. Let cool at room temp for about 10 minutes, then pop into the fridge for 2–3 hours until set.

Step 4: Pop Out & Store
Once firm, gently remove your shower jellies from the mold. Store them in an airtight container in the fridge if your bathroom is steamy, or a lidded jar by the shower in cooler months.

How to Use Shower Jellies

Simply grab one in the shower, squish it between your hands or rub directly on your skin to lather up. They glide easily and rinse clean, leaving your skin soft and lightly scented. For extra cooling, keep them chilled and use post-sun or after a workout.

Tips & Variations

  • Sleepytime Blend: Lavender + chamomile essential oil 
  • Energy Boost: Orange + peppermint (keep away from eyes!) 
  • Holiday Jellies: Add glitter (biodegradable) and candy cane scent for stocking stuffers 
  • Kid-Safe: Use unscented baby body wash and natural fruit coloring

These DIY shower jellies are pure joy in a jar. Whether you’re making them for your little ones, holiday gifting, or your own self-care stash, they add a bouncy boost to your bath time. Bonus: They’re easy to make in big batches, so get ready for a fridge full of jiggly, wiggly goodness.
