DIY Candy Buffet

I bought the plastic ones, 12 for £18. They look plastic, they are plastic but they were cheap and cheerful, they'll be full of sweets and they won't get broken. Nobody is going to notice anything apart from the goodies inside.

I'm actually going round little home stores / charity shops etc to pick up some bargains.
I usually recommend ebay but I haven't bought any jars off there yet as majority I see have high postage costs but may be worth a look just incase, some do pick up only and may have some near you. Places like b&m are good too for little bargain jars & bowls etc

I was lucky and managed to get all mine on ebay local to me, but i have seen some gorgeous glass ridged sweet jars big ones in Home Bargains at the moment for £2.50 !! actually bought two more for our candy bar even tho we already have 12 ! lol

Thanks :-) i never thought about the likes of home bargains or b and m's. I shall go look this week. Excited.com!

Definitely check out Home Bargains if you have one nearby, I bought glass Kilner style jars from there last year for £1.50-2.50 depending on size and have seen similar in there regularly since.

Oh brill thanks. Shall definitely get some of the bon bon ones especially :-)

I was planning on using bowls rather than jars, would this be allowed because of food hygiene?

Hi jhenson123. They look brilliant. I am going after work tomos to b & m and home bargains. They are what im looking for exactly :-)

Miss toffee. I shall use some bowls as well with scoops and tongs provided. I may put wrapped sweets in them.

Thanks sezwest. Ikea is on the list also. :-)
