My accounting job involves seeing a lot of fun popcorn buckets and concession items we make for Disney and movie theaters.
That got me back to seeing what I can whip up myself.
Looking what to practice on, I landed on one of Hallmark's landmark items, and one of Kohl's.
The cookie jar can be downloaded here, and the honey pot is here.

As far as practicing goes, these would make great courses for workng with modifiers and putting them in the right order to minimize manual work.
The amount of sculpting that honey would've required otherwise would've been painstaking.

For the first one, I thought flattening the bottom of the ball wouldn’t look right, so I added a glass stand. I cannot efficiently/effectively fill the bowl with candy because it’ll kill the computer, but otherwise I think I’m onto something.
For the second, the reference for the shape is the wooden, painted christmas tree in Winnie The Pooh's home.
