Edited in 2016 to add more current Stampin' Up! product and a video
I started out by filling pastry bags with candy corn and harvest colored M&M's. I bought the pastry bags at www.clearbags.com 100 for $10.
The bags are pretty large, so I only filled them about half way or I would have needed a ton of candy.
I tied the top and cut off the excess.
I used corn husks from the grocery store to wrap them. I had to really look for them, they are used to wrap tamales and they didn't have them at the grocery store I regularly go to. I tried a specialty market near by and they had them, as well as the largest produce section I have ever seen. I guess I learned it is sometimes a good idea to venture out and go to new places. They had cactus, 8 different kids of bananas and fruits I've never heard of!
I tied the candy bags up with strips of the corn husks.
I made the tags with the fun Tags 4 You stamp set! It has a matching punch and when you get the stamp set and the punch together, you get 15% off!
Fun? Not quite "corn" but still a cute addition to my Thanksgiving table.
The item number for the bundle is 133294 $26.95 clear mount, 133293 $30.95 wood mount. page 37 of the holiday catalog.
Thanks for stopping by!!
These are adorable! You should live in Arizona like me. I can't go to a store that doesn't have tamale wraps! :) If you ever can't find them, let me know! ;)
ReplyDeleteI think they're perfect! We have lots of corn husks here in New Mexico too!
