I was asked to share this candy bouquet
I made for a special friend's retirement.
Sweets for a sweetheart of a friend!
Sorry, I made this before
I started "blogging"
so my pics aren't very good.
But, maybe you can get the idea.
I covered a coffee can
with scrapbook paper and
added fun and funky letters
that spell
"H-A-P-P-Y"
I added foam and covered
it with shreds.
I taped skewers to the
back of each candy bar using
heavy-duty packing tape.
I just go to the candy aisle
and survey the array of candy bars.
I get my inspiration from the names
of the candy and the occasion
I'm fixing the bouquet for.
I have also made candy gram cards by
using poster board instead of a can.
(Sorry no pic of the card.)
Candy bars I used:
Now you can (Snicker)
when the alarm goes off
Your friendship is
(Hershey’s Special) to me
I could search the (Milky Way)
and never find a sweeter friend than you!!!
You’ve had your last one (Pay Day)
It’s a (Grand) day
Retire (Mementos)
MINT – it’s here
Just (Skiddles) addle outta here!
It’s (Crunch) time
Count it ALL (Almond JOY)
(Fast Break) – That’s you today at 4:30
5th Avenue– shopping you will go
Bit o Honey – that’s what you can put on your biscuit when the Sister Chicks go to breakfast on a weekday.
M & M – Millions and millions of happy times await
