Duct Tape Craft Thursday: Trick or Treat Favor Bags



Good Morning Friends,

With Halloween approaching soon you may have a Halloween party that you are planning.  Today's craft would be perfect as a Halloween party favor bag which could be filled with yummy treats for your party guests to go home with. 

It doesn't take long to make them and you can make them all the same or you can make them with different patterns like I did.  Kids would have fun making them too.





Let's get started:
The materials you will need are in the photo below.

a small gift bag, duct tape, wire ribbon, a craft knife, and scissors


Step 1:  Cut the gift bag down to the size you want.  



Step 2:  Cover the whole bag with duct tape



Step 3:  Wrap the wire ribbon around the bag.  I like to use the wire ribbon because it is easy to mold around the bag.


Step 4:  Cut a strip of duct tape and attach it to the sides of the bag to hold down the ribbon.  


Step 5:  Cut a longer strip of duct tape (10 inches) and fold it in thirds to make the handle.

That's it!  I told you it was an easy craft. 


There are so many different kinds of Halloween ribbon designs.  I get mine at Dollar Tree or 50% off from craft stores when they mark down their Halloween section.

Have fun designing your "trick or treat" favor bags.

Deb :)
