I decorate a tree every year full of witches, ghosts, bats and goblins. If you’re having a party here is a quick and easy idea that all will love and you can fill it with all kinds of candies. It takes a piece of construction paper, a Halloween stamp set or even Halloween stickers will work to decorate them. A small handful of shredded paper adds to the festive look. You can find the clear bags I used at any craft store. There is a free pattern here you can use to make the box. French Fry Box Template.
