I want it to be very elegant, so I'm using all glass bowls and vases and penny jars.

these are some of them:

Those are so nice...where did you get them.....

---

the penny jars I bought from another bride on here who didn't end up using them (and she gave me a REALLY great price!).

The vases... I bought at AC Moore and Michael's. With various coupons, they were about 3-12 bucks each!

i'm so happy to see what sarahradio5 is doing... i'm doing the same thing

i haven't really checked how much candy i have... i've bought it as i go to costco (a little at a time)

i'll be using chinese take-out boxes as the container for the guests to take home

Coll - if you end up doing it, you could totally borrow mine from my candy bar (you may not remember them - since it was the end of the night - haha). I have I think 11 containers (including 4 penny jars) and scoops.

I will post pics later - I had all blue candy:

Candy sharks
Candy sour licorice sticks
Jordan Almonds
Old Time Candy Sticks (from general store)
Sour Candy drops
Blue raspberry gum
Rock Candy
Blue and red watermelon slices (jelly)
Laffy Taffy
Ice blue Peppermint Cubes

I think I am forgetting some.

My fav site to get candy from was candyfavorites.com. Best delivery (so quick) and service. I also ordered from oldtimecandy.com and candydirect.com.

ETA: My hall set it up so nicely. They incorporated some extra fans from the ceremony and it looked so nice! I had little chinese containers with labels for people to put candy in (some people took more than one!)

Wow i have never heard of someone doing it on their own ...i always thought the hall gave it to you...i think it is such a good idea...i wonder if i should do it ..i guess i would have to ship everything to Aruba though
