One of the latest trends I have seen in events (weddings, parties, etc.) is candy buffets or dessert bars, so I decided to create my own. This particular candy buffet wasn't for a specific event, but I chose an assortment of colors that could be used for a birthday, shower, wedding, or just for fun! Sweeten up your next event with a candy buffet!
TIPS:
- Collect clear jars of varying shapes/sizes (random is key to making the table look interesting, and jars can be bought cheap from second hand stores or you can borrow randomly from friends)
- Add height! Make some jars stand out more by putting them on top of a box (Mine is covered in white)
- Choose candy that goes with your theme (if you don't have a theme, choose a colorful assortment like I did)
- Add a fun background (banner, streamers, pictures, etc.)
- Use fun containers for guests to put candy in, such as the paper cones I made (super easy!), cellophane bags with string, candy cups, etc.
Love the stripey yellow background. What is that? Your roommates must love all the candy that comes from doing these blog posts! Darling!
ReplyDeleteThe yellow background is streamers!
