Handmade Halloween Treat Bags

Step 15 Enjoy your bags

For this step you will need your completely finished bag! Hurray!!!!

You can make these bags out of any papers you have. I've used all kinds of papers including old book pages. Fill them up with sweet treats. Maybe pack them with homemade Halloween grass. Decorate with stamps or stickers.

I hope you've enjoyed this tutorial. For other projects and creations, please visit my Journal or my Shop.

Yours in craft,

This is a great Instructable. Really well written and nice photos. I've made some linoleum prints and use them to ink paper lunch bags. The finished product isn't as refined as what you've got, but it is fast work and the kids can color the prints if they want. Also, when looking at your pics, it occurred to me that you could use a small block (perhaps a brick) and wrap it like a present leaving one end open. Then slide the brick out and you have a bag. Cheers, - Joe

Those are great suggestions Joe! I did mention in the folding step that you could fold the bottom around a box, but a brick would work too. I just didn't have either available in the size that I wanted for my bags, but that is certainly the way to go if you have the right size. Thanks! -Donovan
