You only need two kisses per spoon.

Things you need to make a kissing spoon favor:

Disposable plastic spoon
Wedding netting (Use the color of your choice depending on your holiday theme)
Curling ribbon (Use the color of your choice depending on your holiday theme)
Two chocolate kisses
Scissors
Ruler
Hot glue gun

Steps to make a kissing spoon favor:

1. Cut a piece of wedding netting 8 inches square. If making multiple kissing spoon favors, fold the wedding netting in several layers and cut many squares at one time.

2. Place two chocolate kisses with their bottoms together in the bowl of a spoon. If desired, it may be helpful to glue the bottoms of the kisses together using the hot glue gun. This will not harm the chocolate, because the glue is only touching the wrapper.

3. Place the bowl of the spoon in the center of the 8 inch square of wedding netting. If you prefer a fuller flower-like look, you may want to use more than one 8 inch square of wedding netting.

4. Pull the corners of the 8 inch square of wedding netting down over the spoon. Gather the wedding netting below the bowl of the spoon.

5. Cut a piece of curling ribbon 15 inches long. Tie the ribbon in a knot below the bowl of the spoon. Curl the ribbon using the scissors.
