Trick-or-Treat Bags

Who says you have to use a boring old pillow case for a tick-or-treat bag. How about having your kids make their own bags this year. It can be as easy as stickers to a bag or more involved with glitter and buttons. I decided to use felt.

 Here are a few things you may want to have on hand:
-felt
-scissors
-buttons
-fabric
-fabric scraps
-hot glue gun

 

First cut the top 1 inch to 1 1/2 off the top of the felt sheets. These will be used for the handles. Hot glue them on.

 Next, cut out the eyes, mouth, nose, and other features or shapes.

 

 Assemble your shapes on the bag. And hot glue them on.

 Finally, glue the front of the bag to the back of the bag. Now, you and your kids are ready to hit the streets with your new candy bags.

Here are some more ideas for trick-or-treat bags.
