What I did with some of those candy canes

 I collect these old glass canister jars at thrift shops, yard sales etc.  I fill them with the candy canes and add the label designed by Susie at Yankee lane primitives, a tie and some mica.  They have alway sold well for me in the past.  I have a very old canister that I may just have to keep for myself.
I also put a rusty bell and safety pin on some, and packaged as bowl fillers.  These are going to my Craft show on Saturday.  If they don't sell there, I'll put them on Etsy.

    Great idea! I like that - with the jar. I'm sure you won't have any problem selling them.

    Thanks everyone!
    I went tonight to set up my tent, tables and lattice. All my containers full of stuff are tucked inside.
    Tomorrow, It's unpack set up and hopefully sell, sell, sell.
    This has always been a safe location. At least half the vendors go and set up the night before. It's a good head start so early in the morning.
    Hugs,
    Pat
