Hanging Chocolate Coin Treats

This project was inspired by Stamping with Peg. A super fun hanging treat suitable for the tree, a stocking filler, gifts for the class or for your colleagues and brilliant if you do craft fairs. Once you have all the pieces cut and ready to go, assembly is quick and easy and they look super cute!
