DIY Halloween Party Candy Cups
Hi friends it’s Andrea, from the Cottage Market, and today we will be making some adorable Halloween Party Candy Cups! I can’t believe that the Summer is over and preparations for the Fall Festivities have begun. Tons of Halloween Decorations and pumpkins are everywhere you look. So I thought a simple…easy…and adorable little Halloween project was a good idea!
Supplies for Party Candy Cups:
- little witch image (printed on cardstock)
- a clay Terra cotta pot
- cupcake liner
- Black paint
- glue
- scissor
- Paint brush
- Cupcake liner
- Candy!
Tutorial:
Your image size will depend on the size pot you will be using. I used the small 2.5″ pot and I printed my image out 5X7. Then wrapped it around the pot and drew the curve line to cut on so it would bend properly around the pot. Then…cut and trim…
Like this…
It’s now time to paint the little pot or large pot the color of choice…I used chalkboard black. I liked the way it looked and then on the small opening in the pack you can chalk a name for some extra fun!
Now you glue the image onto the pot. You can do it 2 ways. 1. You can glue the back of the entire image except the top piece of the hat and place it on pot and apply pressure. 2. You can simple tack the sides of the image with some hot glue. Both methods work well…it is a personal preference. I tacked the images with a dot of hot glue on both sides.
After you glue…it looks like this…
now place your cupcake liner in the pot…
it’s time to fill it with your candy of choice.
I love chocolate but the candy corns and little pumpkins give such a festive look to these little cuties.
You are going to want to make these by the dozens!
Sure hope you enjoyed this little Halloween Craft. It’s simple…quick and adorable! Kids of all ages will enjoy this treat! You can also wrap them with cello and tie them with black and purple curling ribbon! One thing is a MUST…have fun! I so think little fingers will love to help you make these…especially the filling part!
I hope you have fun making these Halloween Party Candy Cups! You might also like these Free Printable Halloween Treat Boxes HERE.
