Super Simple Halloween Decor: Candy Corn Candle

This year I decided that I wanted to do a better job of decorating for Halloween. It's such a fun holiday! Being so busy and all, I decided to start early... in late September to be exact. I thought if I could just gradually work on a few things each week, the house would look super fabulous in time for Halloween and trick-or-treating. 


Well, it turned out like many many things I attempt (sadly enough)... I started out GREAT... then... sort of... lost steam... I'm pretty sure I haven't done a single Halloween-related thing since before Isaac's birthday party. This makes me so sad because I had SO many great ideas! 


Ahhh... maybe next year. 


Enough of that though. I'm going to share a simple project I DID get accomplished.




Seriously, this has got to be the easiest thing ever. But I LOVE it! Aaaannd, the best part of all: Everything pictured above came from Dollar Tree, which makes it super CHEAP and EASY!! I couldn't ask for anything more! 





So, as you can see I put a candle in the glass jar, poured in some candy corn, and there you have it! It's also versatile. Change out the candy for other holidays, or just take out the candy corn and it's still a cute little candle to display. I liked this one so much, I made another to match and put them on each side of my entertainment center.


The only problem I've had is trying to keep my boys from eating all the candy corn ;)
