5 Little Monsters: Friday Five- 5 Halloween Treat Tags and Favors

Friday Five- 5 Halloween Treat Tags and Favors

It is time for another Friday Five- the first one in October, so this week we are going to have another Halloween theme for the roundup. This time I decided to focus on Halloween treat tags and favor ideas and projects. 


Halloween Treat Boxes, Tags, and Favor Ideas

I wasn't sure what to call this roundup but the idea was to include all of the ideas for small favors, treat tags, or containers to hold small amounts of candy. But I was only wanting to include things that would be more of an individual treat or favor, so not a big candy bowl to pass out candy to trick or treaters. I also did not include any crochet projects on this list, I was thinking more along the lines of printable and Cricut projects. So without further ado, here are 5 Halloween treat boxes, tags, and favor ideas:


1- Halloween Treat Bags and Printable Tags

For the first treat tags I have a project that I originally shared as a sponsored post that was using some packed treats like bags of cookies and containers of Pringles as a treat to pass out on Halloween and I made these little paper bags and tags to make them look cuter and more "Halloween". You could use the bags with the tags for any similar packaged treat and the round tags by themselves could be used on pretty much anything. In the post I stuck them to the top of the Pringles containers, you could do the same with things like fruit cups, pudding cups, Jello, etc., or you could just stick it on any package or treat bag. I made 2 designs for the tags- Happy Halloween with a pumpkin, and Trick or Treat with a Spider. The tags are a free printable and the post includes instructions on how to cut the paper bags out of scrapbook paper. 


2- Halloween Pillow Boxes

These little pillow boxes can be filled with little candies. I used my Cricut to cut the boxes out and score them. I cut them out of orange cardstock and made them in a couple of different ways- on one I used my Cricut to cut out a little vinyl Jack 'o Lantern face and stuck it to the box. On the other I just used black and white washi tape to decorate it by wrapping it around the middle.   


3- BOO! Tags

Cute little ghost tags add a fun touch to a Halloween treat bag. These smiley ghosts are a free printable you can download from my website. The simple shape is easy to cut out by hand, or you can upload it to a Cricut or other cutting machine program and do a print and cut. Then just punch a hole in the top and tie it to a treat bag. 


4- Halloween Candy Jars

For project number 4 on this list we have these Halloween candy jars. Add a vinyl face to a jar, fill it up with candy, and tie a little tag around the lid for a simple and you have a super simple and cute gift idea. The 2 versions are a Jack o' Lantern face that looks especially cute when filled up with orange wrapped candy, and a Ghost face that I filled with white wrapped candy. 


5- Little Ghost Treat Bags

The last project I am including in this roundup is these little ghost treat bags. For this project I used little black drawstring favor bags and added little white ghosts to them with iron on. I used my Cricut to cut out the ghosts in a few different sizes. The little white ghosts really pop on the black bags, and you could even use glow in the dark vinyl for ghosts that glow! 

I can't believe it is already October and Halloween is just around the corner, but if you need a cute little treat idea sometime in the next few weeks hopefully these 5 projects will come in handy. 

Come back next Friday for a new theme and another 5 projects. Leave a comment if there is a theme you would like to see!
