This is one of the small, clear, paint cans you can buy at the craft store. I made this one for my son's teacher and filled it with candy. I used strips of paper to decorate it so that you could still see what's inside.
The bigger version would be cute to "Boo" your neighbors. If you don't know what that is, you anonymously leave a container of treats on your neighbor's porch. If you've got critters about, you might want to ring the doorbell and run so that it isn't sitting out all night! They would then "Boo" another neighbor and each would hang a ghost on their door stating that they had already been "Boo'd". It's a lot of fun when it travels all around the neighborhood. You can find instructions, poems, ghost cut-outs, etc. online.
The papers, stamps, etc. are from Stampin' Up!
Oh my gosh...too cute! I've never heard of being "Boo'd" and love the concept. But, I guess you have to have crafty neighbors for it to be really fun, huh?! LOL
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing the info! I went and googled Boo your neighbors and found tons of easy to use information. I'm going to work on getting this started in our neighborhood TODAY! Fun, fun, fun!
