Halloween Tags
I need to put together about 40 kids treats for my boys’ classmates. I needed something quick, that was cute of course, that allowed them to write a to and a from. I created these Halloween tags. I wrapped printed card stock around a fun size hershey bar and added the tag to the top.
I used a colored pencil and a Pen-touch White marker to add the smiles. A couple of googlie eyes and viola a cute treat that can be labeled by my boys.

Cat and Pumpkin Candy Bar Wrapper
Today my inspiration was a bag of Hershey bars sitting on my desk. Before I devoured them I thought I better get them wrapped up for Halloween Treats. So this is what I came up with.
This holds a 1.55 oz hershey bar. The box is about 5 3/4 inches wide and about 2 1/4 inches tall. I wrapped it with ribbon to hold it shut but you could use velcro or tape really your choice. I used the Cat and Pumpkin file available in the Adams Acres store for the embellishments.
The candy bar file is available for FREE is my awesome Adams Acres when you enter your email address below. Be sure to confirm you subscription to Adams Acres newsletter.

Halloween Candy Cracker
I have seen Christmas Crackers so this is my Halloween version. The embellishments are simple because I will probably making quite a few. You could get really crazy with the design.
You only need a few supplies to make these crackers. They are a very economical way to treat the ones you love. I used:
- A toilet paper roll (who doesn’t have one or two of these)
- Craft paper
- tissue paper
- a little ribbon
- a little glue ( I used Tombo)
- and string
I covered the toilet paper roll with the tissue paper. I used a couple of layers. I am filling my roll with candy so I wanted to make sure the tissue was thick enough to hold the candy in. I cut my craft paper a 1/2 inch shorter than the roll. Leaving a 1/4 inch reveal on either side. I punched holes in the roll and the craft paper with my crop-a-dile. It was a little tricky to poke the ribbon through. I went this route instead of gluing the ribbon on the outside. If I glued them to the outside I know I would have a pile of crackers without any ribbon after transporting. I cut the letters using Sure Cuts a Lot. I tied a little multi colored Sugar and Cream yarn (Doodle Twine would have been better but I was out of stock) around either end of the tissue. I also cut the ends of the tissue to fray them. Viola a Halloween Cracker.
A Little Batty
Who doesn’t go a little “batty” during the Halloween season. I wouldn’t want to find a bat in my bellfree unless he looked like this fellow. Here is a “Bat”astic design for your Halloween crafts. This design can be printed and cut or use your favorite die cut machine. This design is available in the Adams Acres Store.
A Pumpkin Good Freebie
First project out of the new craft room. I receive a Parent Connection e-letter. It had this idea to print and cut pumpkins, fold them in half, glue them together and viola you and the kids have a craft. Well is was cute but white, on white on white. White and Halloween I couldn’t make the connection so this is what I came up with instead.
I cut 8 of the large pumpkins. I folded them in half an pasted them together with craft adhesive spray. I did a little chalking on the edges. That wasn’t enough so I went back to Inkscape and added the vine and a smaller pumpkin. The kitty comes from an upcoming featured cut that is available in the Adams Acres Store.
