    hi ladies been doing abit of a spring clean ( before the arm incident) and i came across 1 large glass square clear vase and 2 smaller glass square vases which are perfect for my candy buffet i have also came across 6 colour changing flowers that i will also be using so just a little tip look around the house before u go out and spend a fortune on ya jars and vases its surprising what u will come across as i have also came across a tall slim galvanised bucket too it just keeps getting better lol happy hunting xx

    I've only bought about 4 vases so far, 3 of which were really cheap, either from a charity shop or on sale. But then i bought a huuuuuge one and splashed out full price, because i fell in love with it lol. It's really big and it's so unusual xx

    here it is was plenty of sweets all day long and adults enjoyed it as much as the kids did the round sweet jars on the end was stuck on spinning glass pedestal which i liked the idea of they stuck them on with double sided take and i had a go at pulling them off and was totally secure the didn't budge xx

    they did say it cost a fortune lol she said some thing like a 1000 lollys were used for the tress and i know they took sweets home so they didnt run out but it did look great. im now thinking of using cups intead of bags for the sweets as ppl were using the palstic drinks cups instead of the bags and it seems to be a lot eaiser xx

    yeah i have been looking at them brilly have found some green and pinked stripped ones on amazon. i know she tried to send us home with a full tree my brother as a thing about giving my kids sweets have them jumping of the walls and drive me crazy he was gutted they fell asleep before we left and went straight to bed when we got home Amelia ate that many sweets she had belly ache at one point though.

    i was going to have my sweet buffet just on the night but I'm thinking of having it out all day now cos its mostly the same ppl coming from my side and most of the kids are from my side of the family and thedidn'tnt really over do it no one was sick and they had all day to run off the sugar.plus that way i can set it up the day beofre the way i see it in my head
