Sure, nothing is sweeter than a great party, but the right treats can make a fun event even better. Whether you're planning your wedding, a baby shower, or just a simple get-together, wow your guests with a colorful candy display. Color-coordinated goodies help liven up the party and offer a great way for guests to snack and mingle. Here's how to put together this fun table full of treats:

  1. Start by collecting an assortment of clear, glass vases in different sizes and shapes. Cheap vases can be found at Michaels and Ikea.
  2. Pick out a bunch of candy in the same color or a couple complementary hues; think of it as an extension of the party's decor. For an easy fix, head to the candy aisle at Target or a drugstore; for the best selection head to your local candy shop or shop online.
  3. Fill the vases with the candy, one sweet per vase.
  4. Stack cute goody bags or to-go containers next to the candy.
  5. Invite guests to fill a container full of their favorite sugary treats!
