A Year of DIY Jumbo Ring Pop Gifts

Remember the joy of receiving a ring pop as a child? Now, imagine supersizing that delight into a unique and personalized gift. I have been loving creating these cute DIY Jumbo Ring Pop Gifts for all sorts of occasions, using easy and affordable materials. They can be filled with your loved one’s favorite treats and trinkets, and are easily customizable for any occasion! In fact, I’ve been making my way through creating a year of DIY Jumbo Ring Pop Gifts, and I’m ready to share all the ideas and inspiration with you!

How to Create DIY Jumbo Ring Pop Gifts for All Occasions

Before we get into all the specific holiday jumbo ring pop gifts, here are the general instructions for how to make them:

You’ll need:

a foam ring
foam cutter
paint
glue
a plastic plate
a container for the “jewel” – this can be any openable container with a flat bottom, or can be created by taping two large bowls together!

Instructions:

Paint the foam ring and let dry.
Cut the edge off of one side of the foam ring to create a flat side.
Glue the bottom of the plastic plate to the flat side of the ring.
Glue the bottom of the container to the top of the plastic plate.
Fill the container with treats and close it or tape the other side on.

That’s it! Now onto the inspiration!

Valentine’s Day

For the valentine’s day version of the jumbo ring pop, I used a heart-shaped container I found at Target.

I filled it with:

Haribo hearts
Love struck face mask
Lip mask
Heart pimple patches
Lip claw clip

St. Patrick’s Day

For St. Patrick’s Day, I used two green plastic bowls from the dollar store taped together, and added some leprechaun flair with a green sequin bow. I also added some “pot o’ gold” magic by wrapping the foam circle in some gold adhesive mirror tiles.

I filled mine with:

Rainbow socks
Lucky charms claw clip
Clover straw covers
Rainbow candy
Lucky patches

Easter

My Easter Jumbo Ring Pop featured a giant Easter egg for the ring’s jewel, embellished with some bunny ears and blue gingham ribbon.

I even added a white pom pom to the back of the egg as an adorable little bunny tail.

Fourth of July

The Fourth of July Jumbo Ring pop was fun to create with red bowls and a blue plate. I added “USA” letter patches to the bowls, and painted the foam ring blue. White foam stars completed the patriotic look!

Back to School

I used red bowls and decorated them to look like an apple for my Back to School jumbo ring pop. I decorated the ring itself to look like a pencil, and added “ABC” letter stickers to the front for the final touch. This would be such a cute gift for a kid going back to school or a teacher appreciation gift!

I filled mine with:

quirky fun pens
highlighters
a gift card

a coffin filled with black candy

Christmas

Halloween is my favorite holiday, but Christmas might be a close second! That’s why I created two different versions of a Christmas Jumbo Ring Pop.

Then, I filled it with:

Gingerbread people stuffies
Gingerbread man squishie
Gingerbread man container filled with candy
DIY gingerbread man cup & paintbrushes
Gingerbread man foam craft
Gingerbread man cookie

I filled mine with:

Santa hat hersheys kiss 
Santa lip pop 
Santa foam craft
