Cheri Heaton
Materials Needed:
- 1 roll of craft/postal paper
- pencil
- candy
- scissors
- googly eyes
- marking pen (black)
- sewing machine
Cut Out Shapes
First, sketch Halloween shapes (a ghost, bat or pumpkin, for example) using a pencil, or find a template by searching online. (For example, search Google images for "ghost template.")
Stitch Edges
Use your sewing machine to stitch edges, but leave enough of an opening to fill with candy. (Lay out your candy on top of the shapes ahead of time to ensure they'll fit.) Fill with candy and stitch the opening closed.
Add Eyes or Faces
Glue on googly eyes and draw mouths or other face shapes.
