What's a celebration without a candy station? All you need is red, white and blue candy!
Dollar Store Finds
Mike and Ike RedRageous Candies
Patriotic Tootsie Pops
Red Hots
Soft Peppermint Puffs
The small glass containers are also from the Dollar Store.
Grocery Store Finds
Mini Nestle Crunch Bars
Mini Baby Ruth Bars
Swedish Fish
York Peppermint Pieces (in white and blue)
Gingham Take-Out boxes from Packaging Specialties. I think they cost 85 cents apiece.
To set up the display, just look around your house for things in a patriotic color scheme. The scoops are from Sur La Table and are really inexpensive but I've seen similar items at World Market.
How to Make a Yummy Treats sign
Supplies: Any frame, chalkstock from Canvas Corp, chalk or chalk ink
Trim the chalk stock to fit into the frame, using the glass as a template. Using chalk or chalk ink, write on the chalkstock.

Absolutely adorable, Malia! The only thing missing from list is the throng of kids bursting with excitement to get at the goods. Like kids in a candy store!! :)
