Halloween Egg Carton Treat Boxes

October 3, 2012 By Tonya Staab

Affiliate disclosure

Can you believe it’s October? I see friends already decorating for Halloween. So this month’s craft is a very simple Halloween egg carton treat boxes, that kids will love, and that costs very little since you probably already have egg cartons in your recycling bin!

I have to admit to being a bit of a hoarder. Not in the ‘I should be on that television show’ kind of hoarder, but I save everything I possibly can for future craft projects; from egg cartons, to pieces of cardboard that come in parcels, and of course tin cans and jars. I also have containers filled with tiny pieces of ribbons, yarn, and paper scraps. One day I’ll be able to put it all to good use.

With that in mind this craft project cost me nothing out of pocket, but we’ve included links to supplies below in case you aren’t a hoarder like me.

Click the slideshow below to get step-by-step instructions on how to make these adorable Halloween Egg Carton Crafts!

    […] Halloween mi piace perché ci sono in giro molti più dolci del solito, caramelle, croccanti, torroni, liquirizie, cioccolatini di ogni genere e tipo. Non nego che a volte preferirei essere una bambina per andare in giro per le case a fare ‘dolcetto o scherzetto‘, ma non potendo mi limito a creare dei contenitori originali di prelibatezze da dare a chiunque bussi alla porta. Con il riciclo creativo del cartone delle uova possiamo realizzare un progetto originale e che lascerà i più piccoli sorpresi e divertiti. Prendete le sedi delle uova e coloratele con delle tempere di vari colori, sono molto indicate le tonalità come l’arancio, il bianco, il verde e anche il nero. Una volta asciugato il cartone potete disegnare facce e dettagli mostruosi. A questo punto aggiungete all’interno qualche caramella e cioccolatino e chiudete la confezione con un nastrino. Qui potete trovare questo nuovo tutorial di Halloween. […]
