Bugs and Kisses

Yes it is after Halloween but I have to share these cute giftbags we handed out for my daughter's school halloween party. 


I printed out this graphic from online and cut them to a 2 inch by 3 inch size and then mounted them on some cute patterned paper. 




Next I folded them in half and stapled them to snack size baggies with a few Hershey kisses and a plastic bug in each. 




Now we have bugs and kisses for all her classmates.

Front Door Eyeballs

Need to spice up the door before trick or treaters come by?

Add a set of eyeballs!
 


Simply take two paper plates and draw the iris (black circle) on it. 


You can get creative and make cat eyes, big eyes, little eyes, or anything else you can imagine!


Then simply adhear them to your door and you're ready for trick or treaters!

Paper Plate Ghosts

A last minute crafts for your little goblins to make. 

Supplies:
Paper plates
Printer paper 
Blacks marker scissors 
Tape


While the kiddos start drawing ghostly faces on the plates:




Fold the printer paper into a fan and cut into 1/2 inch strips.


(You can also cut a curved pattern or just leave them straight.)


Once the faces are done tape 6 to 8 stands on paper onto each ghost. 


Easy, fun, and very little clean up!

Going Batty!

I love Halloween and the myriad of cute craft options for kids this time of year is great!!!

Here are some quick and easy Halloween crafts that I have made (or am planning to make) with my kiddo:

We always save toilet paper tubes. My daughter doesn't throw out anything that could potentailly be used for a craft!  This cute little craft is the most adorable bat I've ever seen.

Love this door full of bats. Click here for more door decorating ideas. So easy to make with some black card stock! If you are not good at freehand cutting look below at the link for the bat templates.


Finally, how finis this bat headband! Wonder what my daughter would think if I wore this while taking her trick or treating? Click here to go to the Martha Stewart website.



Happy crafting. (Take some pictures of the bat crafts you make and share them in the tidbit's facebook page!)
