That's an idea, I actually was going to look for a real piece of coal and one is for someone who is really naughty...:-P

These were a bit hit for me this past Christmas. Sold lots of them with black jelly beans as coal. This is called Bev's Humbug because I had asked Vicki-basketkase what she thought a humbug looked like and this is what she came up with, I love this little guy.<br /><br /><br /><br />

hint-use a variegated thread on the Christmas bulbs and save 3 color changes

I'm in Middle USA, I hadn't got far enough to look for anything to go inside yet, but candy is good. I was actually looking for a real piece of coal for one of them! :-)

I posted a picture of Coal Candy and a link if you want to make it yourself. Look in Chat as I had posted it originally in the wrong area. I was trying to add it all here with these cute bags, but didn't do it correctly.

GASP...your aren't going to make these for those little girls are you? Say it isn't so! If you do that I'll have to make one for you! They aren't on Santa's naughty list, they are on his nice list.
