A JustRite Spooktacular Treat
For a really spooktacular treat for the older trick-or-treaters, I made these coffin boxes and stuffed them with bite size candy bars. I found the templates for the boxes on the Martha Stewart Crafts site. The inside of the box is lined with Halloween paper I purchased from Stampin’ Up! a couple of years ago. I placed the mummy tag on a foam dot and adhered it to the top of the box similar to what I did with the broomstick treat bag. The mummy tag was created with the JustRite Stampers Witch Way to the Treats set that I got from the Stamp Simply Ribbon Store.
The boxes are quick and easy to make. The Martha Stewart Crafts site provides an easy to use template that you can download with instructions for making the box. Use your imagination on how you want to design it!
