I'm hosting a bake sale to raise funds for my daughter's elementary school PTO. I've been looking for unique ideas to package the items to ensure a lot of funds earned. In today's mail update from MarthaStewart.com, was a link to some fantastic treat boxes and favors.
I always am partial to the holiday crackers and love the one's in the middle. The cat treat boxes look a little more time consuming than what I want so I might stick with the other two options. See how easy it looks:
Tools and Materials
- Crepe and colored papers
- Scissors
- Stickers or rubber stamps
- Toilet-paper rolls
- Glue stick
- Twine
- Plastic spider or bat rings
These Halloween treat holders are modeled after British Christmas crackers.
1. Cut an 11-inch square of crepe paper and a 4-by-7-inch piece of paper in another color; decorate with stickers or stamps.
2. Roll crepe paper around a candy-filled toilet-paper roll; glue seams closed. Wrap paper rectangle around center; glue.
3. Tie ends with twine; snip for fringe. Slip rings over twine. Pull ends to break open.
