candy bags for tricks & treats

Friday, October 15, 2010

Halloween cat toppers and ghostly goody bags. With lots of kids and classes to provide stuff for, we’re all about the Halloween treats around here. A few more ideas to inspire you…

Have some fun with tiny glassine sleeves that are normally used for 35mm negatives. Edit: Draw a ghost face freehand with a sharpie marker on first, fill with marshmallows or other small white candies, and carefully twist the top shut. In three easy steps you have an instant ghostly goody bag.

These glassine bags are 1 3/4″ wide and 9 1/2″ long. Sold in packs of 50 and sold individually.

Fill some fun treat bags with gum, candy, chocolate covered pretzels, marshmallow ghosts, goldfish crackers, or whatever else you can think up. Cut out these cat toppers and use them as a fun tag taped to a stick, tucked inside or tied on a bag (and of course you could use them on a cupcake as well). I think these goody bags would be great Halloween party favors or a fun surprise for a small preschool class. Click on the toppers to download the PDF.
