halloween candy for the table

since we had made a trip to the old fashioned candy store in bay city last week, i had a nice selection of Halloween candy that was calling out for a creative display.

using chemistry glassware and beakers, i have the candy arranged.  black and orange gumdrops, peanut butter chews wrapped in orange and black paper, sugared pumpkins, black shoestring licorice, Godiva caramels wrapped in orange paper, and Reece's pieces each in their own chemistry container sitting on a circular serving tray.  i used orange ribbon and wove the ribbon easily around the beakers to provide added color and interest.

placed near my favorite wooden spider, the treats are very welcoming on my kitchen sideboard.
