Really Reasonable Ribbon September Blog Hop!

Hi friends! Hope you are having a great weekend so far! Thanks for stopping by! If you're here from Jenn's blog for our RRR blog hop, then you're in the right place! If not, head over to the RRR Blog to begin! 
Isn't this an extra fun hop?! I sure am enjoying all the wonderful projects with the September Ribbon Club Assortment! I loved making my project with these frightfully fun and boo-tiful ribbons!
Here's what I brewed up...
I combined the inspiration from this and this pinterest project to create my fancy witch's hat popcorn balls! I found the little white paper doilies to be perfect hat brims! I hope you like them too and are inspired to give them a try!
Caramel Popcorn Balls:
1 cup water, 1/2 cup light brown sugar, 1/2 cup light corn syrup with vanilla, (if not, add 1 tsp. vanilla extract).
Mix together all ingredients in medium saucepan on high heat with a candy thermometer inserted til temp reaches the hardening point of 237 degrees.Remove from heat, pour over 1 bag microwave popcorn and toss with plastic spoon or spatula til all popcorn is well coated. Lay out a piece of wax paper and lightly butter your hands, then form popcorn mixture into large balls. (makes 8)




Thanks so much for visiting today! By the way, Really Reasonable Ribbon is currently having a Design Team Call!!! Check out all the details HERE!

Your next stop on the hop is Cheryl!
