Graduation Gift

I saw this Candy Gram pail idea over here.
It was for a teacher! I tweaked it, to give as a graduation gift!

I got the clear paint can at Michael's for $3.99
minus my 40% coupon, which made it even less!

In case you can't read it in the picture:

LOOK at you, SMARTIE pants!

You SKORed high on tests and reached the PAYDAY of graduation.

Don’t listen to SNICKERS, that you are a DUM DUM or NERD,

cuz you are one HOT TAMALE in this MILKY WAY,

on her way to making a 100 GRAND!

Hope your FAST BREAK of summer is MOUNDS of fun!

Lots of KISSES,

HEATHer and family

      I SKORed big when I got you for a teacher. Don't SNICKER, but I think you're great! You are MOUNDS of fun and you have brought me so much JOY. I think you ROCK. (pop rocks) Thanks BEARY much (gummy bears) for always being so JOLLY (jolly ranchers) and for helping me become such a SMARTIE. Teachers like you are worth a MINT. (york peppermint patty) I'd be a NERD if I didn't thank you for helping me put the PIECES (reeses pieces) of the knowledge puzzle together. You are Might Magnificent. (m&ms) Thanks for a great year!

  11. Love this idea and plan to use with a gift card. Just curious - what candy went with "Look"?

  12. So I googled Look candy and found it. We have an old fashion candy store near us that might have it.
