A Halloween Pumpkin Treats idea

Halloween Pumpkin Treats!

Take a look back at my blog post from last October for a great trick or treat creation!  I have to admit I've been a little busy this year and due to the fact that both DD and DS are getting older and growing out of the whole Halloween thing we've not been quite so organised!  Never the less, 'A' will be off out tonight with her friend and I'm making a last minute dash now in a futile attempt to find a pumpkin.  Mother of the year I am ;)

Halloween Pumpkin Treats!

When looking in Mom's latest 'Homes & Ideas' magazine last month there was a cool idea for Halloween treats.  'A' and I had a go at making them this morning and we're quite pleased with the results.  For those of you that want to make them for yourselves I put the piccies below.

1. First take two sheets of orange tissue paper.  Draw a circle around a dinner plate and cut out.

2. In the centre of the circles place a handful of halloween goodies.

3. Start to pull up the sides of the circles to form the mini pumpkin's 'stalk'.

4. Tape around the 'stalk' with green florists tape.

All that's left is for your Halloween visitors to rip open the pumpkin to find the goodies inside!
