TikToker Kimblery Nikole (@iamkimberlynikole) gets millions of views when she posts her creations online.

“I know I've been promising this Valentine's Day lollipop video for over a week and it finally happened,” she wrote.

“Most of the supplies are from Dollar Tree. Easy to do, let me know if you have any questions,” she finished.

Kimberly started the process for her niece and nephew's Valentine's Day swap by filling clear plastic cups with candy.

You can close the “lollipop” by placing another clear plastic container on top.

Kimberly sealed one lollipop with a hot glue gun and another with plastic tape, showing that you can use multiple methods.

To make the hole for the stick, Kimberly stuck the tip of the hot glue gun into the top of the closed lollipop.

Then she glued the tip of a pencil into the hole.

Once it's dry, add some more hot glue to make sure it stays in place, Kimberly said.

The last step is wrapping the lollipop.

Kimberly used a decorative plastic bag at first, but she didn't like it.

So she went back to the store and bought cellophane wrap.

She finished the DIY by tying a knot with a ribbon.

Here's how to make candy-filled lollipops for kids on Valentine's Day

  • Fill a clear plastic cup with candies and treats
  • Hot glue a second plastic on top
  • Make a hole in the top and glue a pencil on it
  • Cover the lollipop with plastic wrap
  • Tie it off with a ribbon and bow

In total, Kimberly said she shopped at Dollar Tree for the cups, ribbon and pencils; Walmart for the snacks and Hobby Lobby for the plastic wrap.
