Do you love Halloween? Why not make some witch broom inspired treat bags. A fun craft – and then kiddies (and adults) get to enjoy the treats inside!
Thanks to Amber, from Maryland, who sent in this great witches broom treat bag idea. Let’s take a look at them…
What did you do?
We made witches broom treat bags.
What you’ll need (these specs render 12 treat bags)
24 Brown Paper Bags
12 twigs or branches
Festive ribbon or yarn
Instructions:
Cut strips into 1 bag, put another bag (with slits cut in the top only) inside the stripped bag, filled it with some goodies, added a stick, and tie them with ribbon.
Total prep time: 45min
I love that I spent only $8 on materials and they are so easy to make! We foraged for branches near our house. These were a hit at the toddler playgroup I made these for (pre-COVID) and I will be making them as “grab bags” for any treat or treaters that may stop by this year on Halloween.
