That's a fun survey. How did you do the jar of jellybeans?

it was a clear plastic garbage bag with either a neck hole or leg holes cut out (depending on which way you turned the bag) and then filled with blown up balloons of all different colors. you could even put a big plastic baggie on your head as a lid. its cute for kids or grown ups. =)
