Last Minute Halloween Fun!


I am so excited to share my last minute Halloween treat boxes with you! I finally got in the spirit of Halloween last night and stopped at my local Walgreens to get some candy! Next step was to figure out what I should create to house the yummies! After doing some searches I came across this candy box template from Martha Stewarts' website. I cut the box template out on black cardstock and used double sided tape to put it together. Next I decorated one of the sides with some spider web designer paper from the Fall Stack and used my Coluzzle to cut out the white circles that I stamped the cute spider on! The spider was from a retired Stampin' up Set "Cute as a bug". The circle was embellished with an autumn terracotta brad and a cut out of designer paper that says Happy Halloween was positioned on the circle. I added the circle to the box with a foam square. Lastly the box was filled with candy and closed. To close up the box, take a piece of orange ribbon that is folded in half and tye a knot in the end. The 2 flaps of the box are hole punched and then the ribbon can be pushed through the holes and the know keeps it from going through! I hope you enjoyed my last minute Halloween goody!
