Super easy and cheap Halloween project. . .

WOOHOO! I came up with a craft on my own!

Usually, I just shamelessly copy the talented work of other bloggers. LOL



It's not much but I am thrilled with the results!



First off, here are my goods. I got everything 'cept the candy corn at the $1 spot at Target.



It's just a set of 2 mini buckets, scrapbooking stickers, ribbon and candy corn.

All I did was decorate the little buckets with the stickers and ribbon then added some candy corn and it's done! Super easy!

Here is the finished project.





Lastly, here is a pic of them on my front table by the door. This table is a work in progress because I still have a TON of Fall decor to get out of the attic.





Anyhow, I thought this was appropriate for Kimba's Halloween Party!

I hope you like it and if you do it, I would love to see your version!

I will include more Fall/Halloween pics soon, thanks so much for looking.

Great idea, but I have to be careful when I use candy as decoration......it all gets eaten....by me....before the holiday is even close!

Cute candy tubs... I actually bought those very items from the dollar section, now I know what I can do with them... That would be super cute to give to the kids teachers! Thanks for sharing.

Traci @ The Bakery said...

Yeah...the candy wouldn't last a day in my house...my husband is a candyaholic....and too funny, as I am typing this, he came to ask if he could have some M&M's from the SECRET stash....HE DISCOVERED IT.

I should do a whole post about his sweet tooth.....

Very cute blog!!!
