Halloween Crafts with Food

When it comes to crafts, have you ever thought about using food? There are many ideas that you can come up with using food and they don’t all have to be scary like these 14 Spooky Snacks for Parties. To make these easy Halloween food crafts, just go to your cupboard or fridge, you probably have some of these food items for regular lunch snacks.

Here are a few food items that will make fun ideas for Halloween:

• marshmallows
• fruit
• candy gummy worms
• cookies
• hot dogs (dressed as a mummy)
• cooked noodles (for brain)
• eggs (evil eggs)
• chocolate bars

No matter the crafty snack you make, kids and adults will love them for their parties, work, or school. These even make great Halloween treats for teachers!

Sometimes it isn’t always about the food, making easy crafts for Halloween decor or gifts gives the family or classroom time together creating memories that will last forever. I find when making gifts, I like to use mason jars because there are so many uses for them. Whether you are filling them with candy, painting them or just adding ribbon here are 15 Mason Jar crafts to get you started.

Halloween Mummy Bananas Craft

Pin

1. Starting at the bottom of the banana, begin randomly wrapping the gauze roll around the length of the banana. You can crisscross the gauze or leave gaps to give it more of a mummy feel. Be sure to leave a small gap near the top of the banana where you would like the eyes to be. Secure the gauze at the back of your banana with tape or hot glue.

2. Using a low temperature hot glue gun, attach the googly eyes to the front of your banana where you have created a gap in the gauze.

Halloween Chocolate Pudding Bats Craft
