DIY Jelly Bean Bracelet
A Personal Candy Jewelry Necklace Memory
Do you remember candy bracelets and necklaces? I sure do. They will be burned into my brain forever. When I was a little girl my mother dressed me in a lovely ensemble for school photos. Just prior, I decided to style myself a bit further for the photo shoot with a partly eaten lovely candy necklace. What I didn’t anticipate was my mothers fury when the photos came in. Let me just leave it at that. SMILE!
The other day I spotted a pack of extra large candy bracelets at Nordstrom and giggled my head off at the “not so much fun at the time” memory.
PS This is a great Easter Craft for Kids.
Mama, if you are reading this, NORDSTROM CONSIDERS CANDY JEWELRY A FASHION PIECE! I knew I was on to something special!
Today I am returning to my childhood “stylist” occupation. I have crafted my own version of the candy bracelet using retro jelly beans! I am wearing this fun statement piece with a pair of jeans and a blouse for a casual Easter party this weekend.
PS Do you have a “not so fun but funny” childhood fashion statement memory? Please share in the comments!

I used your idea to make a garland of jelly beans for my easter tier tray. The wooden beaded garlands are more than I wanted to pay. Your idea was fantastic and can be used for so many other decors.
