inspiration: candy buffet's

I just love a good candy buffet as a matter of fact I had one at my wedding and it was a huge hit!  My husband and I as well as both of our families love candy so a candy buffet was an easy choice for us!  I also plan on doing one for my son's first birthday!  Here are some of the candy buffet's that I have been inspired by.  They are beautiful and so much fun!

project: plarn.

This looks like a fun and very green project!  Get directions on how to make it here.   

Also, here is a video to show how easy it is to make the plarn.  Sadly, I can't knit so I am gonna explore more ideas for using plarn as I have way too many plastic grocery bags lying around.
