    I wanted to share with you how to make a candy vase.  It makes a great Valentine's Day gift idea for the chocolate lovers.  It is also an economical gift for stockpilers.  I saw a candy themed vase just like this for $24.99 in a local grocery store!

    The perfect Valentine's Day gift idea for the chocolate lovers.

    I couldn't believe my eyes!  I decided to come home and re-create my own version for only a fraction of the cost.  I have two major CHOCOHOLICS at my house who are going to love this for Valentines Day!  This is the photo before of my supplies and after!

    The perfect Valentine's Day gift idea for the chocolate lovers.

    How to Make a Candy Vase

    Supplies:

    • Glass Vase - Free from my house - but would cost $1.00
    • Dowel Rod - Free (from Tim's stash) - but would cost $1.00
    • Ribbon - Leftover from my stash - but would cost $1.00

      Hi ! I'm new to your site and I love it ! I live in Riverdale, Ga. I am a wife and also a mother to 3 hungry teenagers. I began couponing approx. 4 months ago. My question is this : how do I get the higher dollar coupons that aren't sent out in my Atlanta Journal Constitution newspaper ?

      Thanks for your help,
      Rhonda

        From Coupon Clipping Services - http://stockpilingmoms.com/coupon-clippers/ - This is a great way to purchase coupons from other regions.
