Hello Better Homes and Gardens gang!
What a great recipe to use in our push pop containers!
Rhonda Giarraffa here. I want to thank BHG for showing ideas in both the June and July edition using our Giarraffa Co. products. The June edition shows our Push up Pop Containers using confetti in them. Very cool. And thanks again for directing your readers to our website in the BHG June edition on page 14!
