1/2 cup Yellow Candy Melting Chips
3-4 Orange Starburst
24 Mini Chocolate Chips
DIRECTIONS:
Cut Starburst into 3 rectangular strips (1/4″ x 3/4″)
Cut each of those in half, creating 6 – 1/4″ x 3/8″ rectangles.

You are going to repeat this process on the other 2 Starbursts to create 24 triangles that you will make 2 cuts in each and separate to make toes on the feet.
