Halloween Takeout Boxes



I made these treat boxes for some ladies I visit each month for church. I narrowed it down to these four, but the possibilities are endless! I had a witch, a bat, a cat, and a skeleton (well, the skull part) in mind!

I got a pack of 7 takeout boxes from Hobby Lobby. The pack didn't include a white box, so instead of buying one, I turned one of the blue boxes inside out for the ghost. Then all I did was cut out the shapes from black and white card stock and then I glued them on with tacky glue. I used a fine sharpie for the mouths on Dracula and Frankenstein.

I'm either going to fill them with popcorn and fall colored M&M's coated in almond bark, or if I get lazy, just some fun sized candy bars!

I always like it when someone else does the work for me, so if you don't feel like making your own faces, here is a template to either trace onto card stock or, since all the pieces are black and white, you could probably just print it, cut it out and glue it on!
