    Pick out a simple vase or bottle. The container does not need to be expensive to be effective. You can find unique vases and bottles at second-hand stores. Transparent containers work well if you want to put candy in the bottom for more color and texture. Colored containers hide the stick part of the lollipop.

  2. Step 2
