It’s hard to believe it’s almost halloween! Is your pumpkin carved yet? Have you stocked up on chocolate for the trick-or-treaters? I am so not ready! But with these little boxes I feel at least one step closer!
The treatboxes can be any type…for mine I used a die to create the box itself, but there are plenty of free templates you can Google!
I also have some trivia for you: a “group” of bats is called either a colony – or a camp! Who makes up the names for gaggles of things, anyway! Ha! I made a bunch of these boxes with bats on them…
And for my friends who might not appreciate bats, I broke out some of my favorite chevron ribbons and skipped the googlies…
I hope you go out and make a few ribbon bats yourself!

Cool treat boxes with or without the googly eyes.
soo cute and fun creepy
This is a very cute idea Sandy. They would easily adapt for many occasions…how about a kiss inside for Valentines, or an egg all decorated for Easter. Kids would love a great little surprise inside.
Very clever and fun!
These are just too cute love the bats how perfect for a little ones they would be 🙂
