I thought I would share an idea for an easy and inexpensive craft. It seems like every holiday I decorate with candy. I have candy for eating and candy for decorating, the candy I use in these is now three years old ~ it's great, I am not tempted and my kids know it is "yucky and old" so they don't even ask.
Anyway, on to the craft.
Here are the supplies you need:
I bought these all at Michaels, I am sure you can get them at any ol' craft store. I spent a total of 17 dollars to make the following three and that is without any coupons or sales.

I don't have step by step photos or directions, I really don't think it is necessary. It is helpful, however, to have a sister-in-law who has a craft room like a celebrity and is so generous to cut the vinyl snowflakes for me. Thanks Alissa!! You really could do a million things with this, any holiday would be cute. Who doesn't love a gumball machine? If you make one, please share the finished product ~ we'd all love to see it.

I so want to do some now. Those are so cute.
Adorable. I think I'll make these as a gift my daugters preschool teachers. Do you remember the type of paint you used? Kindly, Andi
I guess since you are my neighbor I shouldn't steal the idea and make neighbor presents, huh! They are adorable.
So cute!!! Might attempt a copy!!
That is super cute and fun. I love that your sister in law's name is spelled with an "i". That is how I wanted to spell my Alyssa's name but I thought she might be correcting people her whole life. Thanks for sharing the cute idea.
Andi,
I just used an acrylic paint but I am sure you could use spray paint too, it may give it a better, shinier finish. I also thought of doing modge podge over it to seal it all.
Even cuter than I pictured!! You have done it again!!
Hyperventilating over the the cuteness!! I hope you don't mind if I put those on my blog tomorrow!!

Love 'em! I'd like to do them for my coworkers but would need to make them transportable -- which means every piece needs to be attached securely, and the top needs to be able to come on and off to access the candy. Any ideas? Thanks!
