Great Idea - I don't know if that is why they did it, but it could be a good reason to put pretty paper or fabric around the bottom of a candy jar...more than just for the nice look it gives. It takes a lot of candy to fill a jar, and that much candy is usually not used up, so just add a bowl upside-down in the bottom of the candy jar and then add your candies on top of it. Tada!
