If you want to fancy up your candy bowl a little, try this Halloween Candy Bowl Decoration! Get yourself some kind of small bowl, dish, or container and make something like a tag or miniature card, essentially, to decorate the bowl for the holiday!
I just took the 5/8″ Burlap Ribbon and wrapped around the candy bowl. Actually, I used some velcro to hold the ribbon together thinking that I could maybe make a Christmas decoration and change it out on the same bowl. But you could also just use some Mini Glue Dots or something to hold the ribbon on to the bowl if you wanted to.
For the Halloween decoration, I stamped the dog from the Trick or Tweet Stamp Set in the Holiday Catalog on Whisper White Cardstock and colored him in with Stampin’ Blends. I love those Stampin’ Blends Markers! So relaxing to color with these alcohol markers. I also stamped and colored the tiny little jack-o-lantern. Then I cut these both out by hand. I also cut out a pumpkin from the Toil & Trouble Designer Paper as well as the little bat.
The greeting is stamped with the Itty Bitty Greetings Stamp Set and ultimately I decided to just cut all the words apart to fit them onto the decoration easier. The full moon is cut with the 1″ Circle Punch out of Crushed Curry Cardstock. I just glued all these pieces onto a piece of Granny Apple Green Cardstock, punched with the 2″ Circle Punch. This is then layered on a piece of Gold Glimmer Paper die cut with one of the Layering Circles Dies. I adhered this decoration to the burlap ribbon with a couple of Stampin’ Dimensionals.
For a finishing touch, I couldn’t resist tying on a piece of the beautiful, sparkly Black 5/8″ Glittered Organdy Ribbon. You’ve got to have this lovely ribbon to use on projects! It’s for more than Halloween, too!
Find a candy bowl in your stash or at the craft store or even the dollar store and decorate it for Halloween! I bet it will make the candy even more enticing (not that we need that!).
