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

"I know I’ve been promising this video on the Valentine’s lollipop for over a week and I finally got it done," 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 exchange by filling clear plastic cups with candy.

You can seal the "lollipop" by placing another clear plastic cup on top.

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

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

Then she hot glued the tip of a pencil inside the hole.

Once it dries, add a little more hot glue to make sure it stays in place, Kimberly said.

The final step is to wrap the lollipop.

Kimberly used a decorative plastic bag at first, but she didn't like the way that looked.

So she went back to to store and purchased cellophane wrap.

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

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

The video has since garnered more than 2 million views and generated more than 1,500 responses.

"My people are so creative," one follower wrote.

"Fellow crafter here, great job," a second said.

"That’s nice and easy," a third added.
