Halloween Candy Kabob

Monstrous Halloween Candy Kabob

Today’s project is a fun one–a Halloween Candy Kabob I created using small sour cream containers.  If you’d like to create your own, you only need a few simple items.

  • patterned paper
  • bamboo skewers
  • adhesive
  • hole punch
  • stamps, embellishments and ribbon of choice

First thing you’ll do is create 3 sour cream containers in the size of your choosing.  If you’ve never made a sour cream container before, they are super easy!  Here is a video I made a few years back on how to make one to help get you started.

Before you seal up the ends of your sour cream containers, you’ll want to punch a hole through the center of each (to allow you to easily slide the skewer through them.)  Once you seal one end, be sure to fill it up with candy before sealing the other side.
