Here's the project I'd like to share with you today! A little "trick" to make some super cute and easy gift bags. I made these for my son's class, and for his teachers as a little Halloween treat. I filled them with small candies. I hope they'll be a big hit! I plan to make these again as table placecards for Thanksgiving and Christmas!

Make them in 5 easy steps!

Step 1: Cut your paper to 5-1/2 by 4-1/4 inches. You can get 4 from a sheet of paper.

Step 2: On the back side (the side that won't show) add adhesive to three sides - two long sides and one short side. Note, it's best to use a strong glue for this step. Otherwise it might not hold. I used my ATG tape gun to glue it.

Step 3: Roll up your paper into a tube...

Step 4: Pinch one end closed...

Step 5: add your candy in, then rotate your tube so you can pinch the other side closed. That's what gives the unique shape.

Step 6: add a tag, ribbon, or other embellishments if you like! Here's my finished products!

I hope you enjoyed my little project and that it might inspire you to create your own treat boxes!

As an extra "treat" for you I have a RAK to give out! I'll draw one name at random from all the comments left on this post by October 31st and send out a set of Halloween stamps to the lucky winner!
