Directions for DIY CANDY MACHINES:

First remove the rubber ring around the lid of the glass candy dish.

Next, spray paint the lid and the vase in the color of your choice.  Let dry completely.

Replace the rubber ring around the glass lid.

Now turn the vase upside down and glue the candy dish on top using E6000 and a glue gun.  I use both since the glue gun will give me an instant hold and when the E6000 dries it will give a permanent hold. Let dry 24 hours.

Next, glue a bow to the front.

Then place a little Easter grass in the bottom of the candy dish.

Fill the dish with R.M. Palmer Pastel Foiled Easter Eggs or Parsnip Pete’s Carrot Treats!.

Now you have the SWEETEST DIY Candy Machines! A great alternative to an Easter basket! So cute, fun & easy to make and budget-friendly too!
