Creative Halloween Treat Bag Tutorial-- no crafting required!


This is the treat bag I made for my son's class. It was super easy and fun!


Steps:


  1. I made a template measuring 5x5 on my software, this can be done by hand as well.

  2. I sectioned off the bottom half for design, measuring 2.5. Leave the top 2.5 blank (this will be the part you fold over).

  3. I decorated it with digital scrapbooking elements- this can be done to your skill level, by hand, or even colored by your child!

  4. Fold the blank top over a candy bag (mine was a cellophane bag, you could use a baggie with the top zipper cut off) so only the decorated section shows, and staple.

  5. Now you have custom candy bags!
