When Mrs. TG was a little girl her Granddaddy in NC used to give her M&M's from a dispenser he had made. It is a very fond memory for both her and her sister. Last summer we were at her Grandmother's house, and I took careful measurements on the candy jar so that I could build a replica. Except for a little metal spout I will add soon, here is the completed project:

It is built from 1/2" plywood (as the original was) and has a standard mason jar ring inset in the top for easy attachment of the candy jar.
