The center vase can even be an empty water bottle or something you can recycle. You just need to make sure there is about 2 inches of room between the containers! This is the small 8\u2033 vase I used here or you can browse these similar 8\u2033 vases!<\/li>\n<li>You can use any color combination of Peeps you like! Feel free to skip the jelly beans and hay if you like. It&#8217;s really up to you.<\/li>\n<li>If you&#8217;re worried about Peeps attracting ants, I haven&#8217;t had that in my experience.
