Valentine Hugs & Kisses Candy Bowl

I learned how to make my own gumball candy machine to fill with hugs and kisses.  I found the tutorial from pinterest of course!

Here is a picture of the one on pinterest, along with the link with instructionshttp://wrapcandy.com/crafts/2011/11/make-a-gumball-candy-dish-craft/
I thought it was cute, and knew that I wanted to make my own.  Matt and I went out together and got all of the stuff that we would need.  It was fun making this craft together!  Extra bonus Matt is able to get all the vinyl lettering through blackhorse design.

Here is the one we made:



 I think it turned out pretty dang cute!  I love that it's got all of the colors red, black, pink, white.  I love that it's got the zebra stripes, and the lips on the ribbon.  I love that the hugs and the caramel kisses match as well! I'm so glad that I have Matt who is better in the craft department than I am to help me.  The ribbon that we got was to wide, so he folded it in half and sewed it with fish line for me.  You can't even tell that he did it either.  He is awesome!  So do you like it?
