Candy Buffet

JNKS2328

I can't figure out what to do for candy buffet containers for my guests. I like the idea of the plastic chineese take out containers but i'm not really sure what size would be good.
Has anyone done this - or planning on doing this? Any suggestions?

We just bought cute 4in by 8 in  linen bags.  They were cheap and still did the job.  Plus, you can order them in your colors.

I did 1/2 pint chinese takeout containers from Papermart that I decorated myself.  They worked perfect.

we used pint sized, from papermart.  Worked great.  We had over 300 pounds of candy and hardly any left by the end of the night!

I got plain white tin tie bags from papermart:  http://www.papermart.com/Product%20Pages/Product.aspx?GroupID=20122&SubGroupID=14753&ParentGroupID=18899#14753

I stamped them with our monogram, but couldn't emboss because it actually warped the bag!

BostonBride919, what size were your glassine-lined paper bags? I noticed Paper Mart offers different sizes & I wanted to get something that was large enough to hold some goodies, while not allowing kids to overfill their bags so much that there would be nothing left for other guests. TIA!
