Ok, I know Halloween is over, but I just HAD to post this craft idea! My son was sick on Halloween so could not go to daycare and missed their big Halloween party. Well, his wonderful daycare provider saved one of the treat bags for him. Take a look at that treat bag! It's a broom! (about 1 1/2 foot tall) And very easy to make. You just need some raffia, tape, stick and a brown paper bag. You could easily dress this up with a bow or any Halloween type decor. You can use a stick from your own backyard, or a dowel from the craft store.; old wooden spoons would work well too (put the spoon part in the bag) All you do is fill up your paper bag with treats. Put the stick inside the bag and squish/gather the bag around it. put strips of raffia around the top to form the bristles of the broom and secure with tape. Masking tape or electrical tape would work well. There you go! A broom treat bag that is so cute! On a side note: unless you really secure it, I wouldn't carry it by the stick! BOO!
