Supplies

- Halloween floral pick – (Trick or Treat) or Skull with Roses or black spider pick
- A (coiled Halloween garland)this is the one we used. Or something like this (garland with black spiders).
- Cricut and vinyl to cut letters/words to make sayings or quotes. Or peel and stick (3.5″ peel and stick letter stickers) or (6″ peel and stick letter stickers)-this one is vinyl. Or purchase premade designs here (makes it so easy to get and stick them on!
Notes:
- If you are cutting your own vinyl words with the Cricut be sure to have Transfer tape on hand and a standard Cricut tool set.
- And if you are purchasing premade designs know the size you need and get vinyl stickers if you want them to last longer.
- Bags of Monster Pop (bagged Popcorn) to fill the tub with! Get it here (Save 25% on any product on monsterpopshop.com with promo code MOMSMEET25 Expires 10/31/21). Monster Pop popcorn is made with 4 ingredients and real butter. It’s gluten-free, non-GMO, and kosher! No artificial ingredients. Get party sized bags or indivdual serving sized bags. This packaging has cute monsters on the each bag!

Instructions
How to decorate treat bucket or serving bowl for Halloween.
- First make sure the plastic tub (bucket or large bowl) is clean, dry and free from lint. I use rubbing alcohol and a cloth or paper towels to wipe it clean.
- Measure your containers space where you will be placing the saying/words in vinyl- height and width. This is for the placement of the word, not overall size of the container.
- Make the vinyl stickers in Cricut Design Space (it’s free to use) or use peel and stick stickers to add Halloween sayings, quotes, , or words to the bucket (or bowl). (video for how to cut and apply Cricut vinyl)
- If you are using the Cricut to design your vinyl stickers be sure to group your words and click weld them! Do this prior to cutting them.
- Adhere stickers (that you made and cut with a Cricut or purchased) to the clean surface of the tub, bucket or bowl.
- Decorate the rim of the bucket with the Halloween garland. Use a hot glue gun to secure the garland at various spots. Overlap slightly at the end, trim with wire cutters or scissors. (Don’t use sewing scissors!)
- Next, add the Halloween pick by inserting and hot gluing to foam square or foam rectangle (or improvise by making a stand with cardboard) and placing at the bottom inside of the bucket).
- Don’t forget to add the bags of Monster Pop popcorn to the bucket. (Add additional packaged treats or packaged candies as desired.)
- Now your popcorn bags and treats are ready for your Halloween party tables, serving or grabbing to snack on. Or handing out as popcorn treats.
