Candy Buffet

blseverance

Hello ladies!!! I'm planning on having a candy buffet at my reception. I got all of the jars that I needed.. I'm curious as to what type of containers to use for my guests? I want them to be large enough to take several pieces of the candy they like. But, I also don't want them to be H-U-G-E!! LoL..

For those of you who are having a candy buffet, or have seen them, what type of take away/favor boxes were used to take the candy home?

Thanks ladies!! Happy New Years!

I went to a wedding in June with a candy bar and she had hurricane vases and fish bowl type vases of different sizes. The candy matched her color scheme too it was really cute. What ever you chose make sure the hole is large enough for a hand or that you have a spoon or tongs long enough to reach the bottom. That was an issue she had with the vase with M&Ms lol She used plastic Chinese take out boxes that had a really pretty cherry blossom design on them. I think she bought them at the dollar store. I have also seen people use plastic baggies or small dessert boxes that you can buy at Michaels or Joann craft stores. Hope that was helpful.

Happy New Year

or even if you did little plastic bags for them to fill. Michaels has some cute ones for cheap and then throw a 40% off coupon on top of that
