Candy Corn Wreath

I have a confession. One that I know will change the way many of you feel about me. But I hope that you can see past it and still be my blog friend.

Promise me you will at least try.

Promise?

I don't like candy corn.

*gasp* I know!

Not even a little bit. It is purely decorative for me. I honestly have candy corn that is 10 years old in my house. Still looks the same! My husband doesn't like it either, but he doesn't like anything sugary. I LOVE sugary junk. But there is just something about candy corn...blah!

But luckily I still think it is CUTE! So I can still appreciate this wreath that Kristi from Hoop-La posted over at Ducks in a Row:

C-U-T-E! And with the brown ribbon you can hang it all the way through Thanksgiving! That is if you don't eat it!

I'm 100% with you. Hate the taste of candy corn, but love it for fun factor! That wreath is great!

I'm with you, TOO much gaggy sugar. I won't tell if you don't! BUT I LOVE your wreath and the brown ribbon is gorgeous! Come by for my give-away when you can.

Oh I did buy some the other week.. it was Brachs, caramel flavor.. I did partake. I didn't taste like caramel. It tasted like, are you ready. CANDY CORN!
OH NO! Just sugar.. no one need try.
I am with you I love the decorative factor.

I like you even more now because I can't stand the stuff :) I'd rather sip sugar through a straw.

Mama Brown said...

You are so hilarious!!! I actually like candy corn, but eating it a few times during the month of October is enough for me. I LOVE the wreath...gonna make me one with my cheap, on sale candy corn!

Don't worry, I don't like candy corn either! It is way to sweet and sugary for me, and I like the sugariest and sweetest of chocolates and other candies!

This wreath is really nice, very pretty!

Suzanne said...

That is by far the best use for candy corn I have ever seen! I'm with you. I'm chocolate purist, myself.

Me either it is GROSS! but I do LOVE this wreath and have been trying to find something to do for our door for halloween so THANK YOU!!!!

Melinda said...

I prefer what they call "Indian Corn"--the kind with the chocolate on the bottom. Yum!

The wreath is cute though.

I might have a piece of candy corn once every 5 years...I don't like it either...but the wreath....I would make an exception!

Shocking!

I adore candy corn. Even if one handful is enough to make me sick to my stomach... =P

Candy corn is like cheap jelly beans. Corn Syrup. That's it.

Kacey said...

OK, so I hope you still like ME because I can't buy it because I LOVE IT SO MUCH. I will literally make myself sick because it is so yummy. Love the wreath too.

I used to LOVE candy corn. Recently though it has been giving me a major sugar rush and making me feel really yucky (even just a few pieces). That wreath is so cute!

Lisa Anne said...

I don't like it either. Tomorrow I've got a post on pumkin poop and was supposed to use candy corn, but I can't stand it. Stop by tomorrow to see what I used instead. I think it worked out way better my way anyway. lol

what you said reminds of a song that comes on Nick Jr (formally Noggin). Here is the link

My 8 yr old doesn't like candy corn either.

If I would have known you didn't like candy corn, I wouldn't have voted for you for the washer/dryer contest! Ok, I would have, but I do LOVE candy corn. I probably couldn't make that wreath, cause my kids would always be picking it off!

I only eat a handful of candy corn a year...that's all I can handle. And I'm the same way at Valentine's with conversation hearts!

Amie said...

Yeah! I am so happy to find people who think candy corn is YUCK! What about the awful peanut butter kisses that come in the orange or black wrappers...even worse! I do love to make and using candy corn decorations! Thanks for the idea!

KimMalk said...

This wreath is so adorable! This is handmade? with candy corn? wow. It may be a project I put my kids on when they're bored. (I don't like candy corn either, but I like the pumpkins--should I admit that?

Just SO said...

candy corn + salted peanuts = one of my favorite treats of all time.

The wreath is cute as well!
