Every holiday I make little treat bags to sell at the local consignment store. But since its Halloween, and I only get a handful of trick or
treaters where I live, I will also pass these out to the little monsters and goblins that come to my door.
Because I'm pressed for time these days, I kept them very simple. Just plain white
card stock using the
Sizzix Top note die for the background. If you are looking for inexpensive baggies,
JoAnn's sells them the cheapest I've ever found, and in many different sizes too.
I staple the white
card stock to the baggie once its filled with chocolate, then wrap a ribbon around it to hide the staple.

I used a variety of Halloween/Thanksgiving images. This one is retired
Stampin Up! 'Festive Four'. The sentiment is from Hero Arts.

The pumpkin is a
Cuttlebug Cut and Emboss die, the sentiment is from Hero Arts.

This turkey I found in a dollar bin at
JoAnn's.

And this turkey and sentiment is also from Hero Arts.

I hope I have inspired you to make some treat bags for your own monsters and goblins who come knocking at your door this month. Have a great day! Amy
Wow Amy, these are so cute! I'll bet you sell out of them too! I'd love to know what you charge for them. We have an upcoming craft festival, and they'd be fun to make and take! Great job!!!

ReplyDeleteAmy these are soooo cute!! What a great bunch of treat bags!
ReplyDeleteI can see how you would sell these adorable bags at the consignment store but I can't imagine going through all that effort for trick-or-treaters.
