Paper
You can use regular copy paper, card
stock, colored, textured or photo
paper when making your wrappers.
I have had good success with paper
all the way up to the 74-pound card
stock. A great happy Medium
is. 32 to 38 pound Brochure paper.
For Weddings, you may want to try a
6 mil Satin or Semi Gloss Photo
Paper.

Scissors
Any Scissors will do the job, but if you're serious about Wrapping
Candy, you're going to want to upgrade to a Cutting board. There
are many different types of cutting boards. If you have kids
around, you'll most likely want to keep it locked up, or invest in a
$12.00 Fiskars Board Paper Trimmer which is a bit safer, but not as
effective for bulk.
Adhesive
Gluesticks work great. If you use photo, or glossy paper, be sure
to use a photo safe Non toxic gluestick. Double Sided Tape
Also Works. Candy
You can take any kind of candy and create customized wrappers for them.
For the best prices on candy, you better try Sam's Club or Costco.
Chocolate doesn't ship well, so you'll be hard pressed finding a better
deal online. Color Inkjet or Laser
Printer
Just about any printer will do these days. If you are on a tight
budget, get an Inkjet Printer. Epson Stylus 200 or Cannon i560 are
both inexpensive and are both good printers.
If you have some start up cash, get a laser printer. It will save you
in ink costs in the long run. Plus laser Gloss paper is cheaper than
Inkjet glossy paper.
