Howlerific Loot Bag in time for Trick of Treat

Boo! Isn't it just fun to say it! Halloween is candies, candies and more candies! I think the cutest is to see all the little kids dress up and walk around doing their Trick or Treat. This year instead of just giving out handful of candies and dropping them in their pumpkin tote or basket, why not make it Howlerific with this cute owl? bat? what is it? It will be cute to see how the kids try to figure it out what the loot bag creature really is - an owl? or a bat?


We made this craft both on felt fabric and as well as on felt paper. The fuzzy feel of that fabric just adds to that whole look and feel of this "h-owl-erific bats". Yes we are calling them h-owl-erific bats. For the felt fabric we opted to stitch the cut out to get that stuff animal feel. For the felt paper we just use our favorite tool - the hot glue. We have yet to test how the felt paper will hold if we use the needle and thread.

Just make sure you have these materials with you - scissors, card stock or any thick sturdy paper of your choice and as mention above your hot glue. Print out the template for this "h-owl-erific bats" click this link. If you do decide to use felt fabric add in your needle and thread (we use orange thread) to your list of materials.

Oh! Don't forget to put those candies inside these loot bags! Happy Trick or Treating!
