Monday Made It! From Candy Containers to School Supply Holders!


How many of you have seen these adorable candy containers at Target.  Yes, the candy is delish...but who can throw away those cute containers??  Not me! (and they are on clearance!)

Plus it is a great excuse to buy more mini-gummy bears!! YUM!



I created a simple set of labels for the lids.  I would love to share them.  Unfortunately the are not editable, but I left a blank one and one with not label for you to use if you 'd like!  Just cut around the black circle and they fit on the lids perfectly. I hot glued them on, and I love how they turned out!

  18. This is a very creative idea...I am always looking for those containers empty, but I guess I could eat the gummy bears if forced :) Thank you for the labels!
