    I am trying to finalize my candy buffet and all I need are ideas for crafty titles on the tags for each jar! 

    Here are the candies I have

    • Twizzlers
    • Bubble Gum
    • carmel creams
    • swedish fish
    • smarties
    • tootsie roles
    • pixie sticks (mini and giant)
    • candy dots
    • candy necklaces
    • Sugar babies

    I am looking for any sayings that have to do with sweets, love and treats.  The tag on the take home bags say "Sweat Treats for Sweat Dreams!"

    What exactly do you mean by crafty titles? Besides the name? I would just label them with the name of the candy or maybe not even at all. I would be afraid that it would look too busy with long titles on each jar. Candy is kinda self-explanatory, imo.

    I kind of agree, with KateMW if you wanna personalize things a little more, put up a little poem in a nice frame or something, as far as the candy, your golden.

    I'd leave the actual jars as is, all the candy you have listed is pretty self explanatory.  You could always do a little sign that says "Love, Sweet Love" or the like.

    We had tags on each jar,but they were pretty small,using only the candy names. The colors were pink,black and white,so many of the solid colors weren't self explanatory. My neice took a handful of tiny white candies and popped them in her mouth. Minutes later he eyes watered and she looked sick. A handful of MINTS was what she took before the labels went on! lol. We also had 2 colors of salt water taffy...vanilla and cherry...with tags,but people still asked what flavors they were. Go figure.

    We used sheer overlays over the half -round table,scrunching it up around the jars which were many staggered sizes. In the center on an easel we had a framed sign saying 'Davis Sweet Shoppe'.

    If you want to add an extra oomph, How about doing a little quote/saying after each like:

    Tootsie Rolls

    (The butterfly oo that's old, let me see that tootsie roll)

    Smarties

    (Bet you couldn't figure that out, smarty pants)

    Candy Dots

    (connect the dots, la la la la)
