Day Seven of my "31 Days of Halloween"

Today is day seven of my "31 Days of Halloween". For my day six I bought some cute Halloween snack bags from the Dollar Tree and filled them each with a packet of hand sanitizer, chips, and a toy. I totally forgot to take a pic of the bag. I will have to ask the girls at the end of the week what the kids at school are thinking about these treats. I remember being tickled in second grade receiving one stick of gum in my final report card from my teacher. It was a huge deal for me. Hoping the kids enjoy receiving them. Honestly I will probably have more fun making them and excitement thinking about them receiving them than the kids actually will. 

For my treat today I made a cute Monster treat box from a video I found on YouTube. I ordered the Rice Krispies "Trick or Treat" mini squares from my local Walmart online. They were around $9.00 for a box of sixty. Three fit in each box. The cost per child was around $.45 each. Sadly, I am sure the belly bands will get torn off by the kids. Wishing I had used velcro clasps on them instead. Oh well.... I will remember this when I make other treat boxes. I used our Close To My Heart retired Jeepers Creepers collection of papers, stamps, and coordinating dies. I am trying to use as much of my retired paper collections as I can. I am loving these projects to help me with this. Enjoy!
