I did use a frosting bag, which mainly gave me control over making the head round. The tail feather mound doesn't have to be as round, but more long and thick for the corns to stick in. What will...

marisab - The sticks are from World Market and ran me just under $4 for 8X the amount I needed for this project!

lona- In FoldTuk's defense, I can't smell a thing. It's my husband with the super sniffer and he swears there's still a smell. But I wanted to include his opinion on the topic! JJJ11...

That's great suewanda! Thanks for sharing! Puts a whole new spin on Shiver Me Timbers! (pirate humor is always in right?)

I've never had a problem washing the burlap pieces I own, although I've always taken care to place them inside a delicates garment bag before washing so they don't unravel--then laid flat to dry!

mrslaurenleigh - There has been some prior contention about games where rapid food eating can cause choking or be unsafe.

PreludeInz- That would have been a logical substitution if that's what you had on hand! Good to know! At least you have some tasty bits in there!

Even though I wasn't into the labor of making individual candy corns, I will admit -- I have been snacking on a mixture of small pieces of dough and peanuts this morning! It's a fun Fall snack!

There are actually a few accounts of that same substitution floating around in the blogosphere pedalpowered... go for it!

sara jane - It's not unlike that, it felt eerily like the Mars Cheese castle in Wi.

Thanks for the catch e_lisa! That could have been quite chaotic, it's been changed. -Sarahrae

adamwa: 8oz can

FaithMC - Make sure to take pictures and let us see how it turns out!

You could Belinda - Although I might suggest just unwrapping the store bought caramels and cutting them in half. They will squish a bit when doing so, you could just remold them into a circular di...
