Love the taste or loathe the taste (sickeningly-sweet chewy corn syrup?), there is no denying that these little American sweets, shaped like a kernel of corn (and tri-colored white, orange, and yellow), are an autumn icon. These little candies bring back memories of being a child, Halloweens, and crisp autumn mornings of a relatively new school year. What is even nicer is that autumn is my favourite time of the year, so these little candies hold a special place. It appears that they hold a special place in the hearts of others as well, with the below finds and ideas:
From top left:
1) crumblescookies: http://www.etsy.com/people/crumblescookies
These candy-corn sugar cookies, sprinkled with sugar, look absolutely delicious. I want them in my tummy! (I am weak at the knees for cookies.)
2) FreshLemonBlossoms: http://www.etsy.com/people/FreshLemonBlossoms
Hand-stamped gift tags with glittery candy corn illustrations on them will brighten up any Halloween-inspired gift for any stylish Halloween party.
3) Instead of buying something, why not make your own vanilla cake (orange and yellow layers) and icing. Put these in a clear jar, and the result looks like candy corn.
4) bathbombconfections: http://www.etsy.com/people/bathbombconfections
These candy-corn-inspired bath bombs look good enough to eat; this is perfect "candy for the bath", and I'd love to have some of these.

2) Twin Dream Creations: http://www.etsy.com/people/TwinDreamCreations
There's more "candy for the bath" with these bath treats (from different sellers), scented and coloured like candy corn candies. It is a difficult decision on which one to purchase for my bath; why not buy both?
3) alleys attic crafts: http://www.etsy.com/people/allysatticcrafts
These three wooden candy corn decorations are very cute, and they are sprinkled with glitter to add some sparkle. I think that these would brighten up a room and certainly look autumn-y.
4) magnolia surprise: http://www.etsy.com/people/magnoliasurprise
These candy corn candies are not made for eating; they are fabric decorations.

Hello there. I needed to inquire some thing.is this a wordpress web site as we are thinking about transferring across to WP. Moreover did you make this theme all by yourself? Cheers.
Hi. I needed to drop you a quick note to impart my thanks. I've been watching your webpage for a month or so and have picked up a heap of sound information as well as enjoyed the way you've structured your article. I am setting about to run my own webpage however I think its too general and I would like to focus more on smaller topics.
Thanks for the excellent post. I added you to digg. Keep up the hard work.
Couldn't have said it better myself.
