The Tin Can Candy Buffet

Monday, October 08, 2012


I've got a great reuse Halloween craft for you today! The tin can candy buffet made from empty cans, black paint, a spool of Halloween ribbon and some candy of course!

I placed all my cans on a lazy Susan I had. I started with the biggest can first and worked my way down, placing them in various orders until I found one that works best.


Once I had the cans I wanted, I painted them all black with acrylic craft paint. 


After a couple coats of paint I added the Halloween ribbon around the tops of the cans and secure them with hot glue.


Then I filled them with candy. It makes a fun and thrifty craft project that looks super cute on the table or buffet. 


I hope you liked my Tin Can Candy Buffet! Happy Halloween!!
