Mummy Candy Dish

Mummy treat holders

Fill these treat holders with candy, or have around as decoration. Fast, easy, and fun these are perfect for a kid’s  Halloween party.

CRAFT MATERIALS:
Toilet tissue tubes
White paper
Clear packing tape
Roll of 2-inch-wide gauze
Craft glue
Googly eyes
Small candies

1. For each holder, trace one end of the empty tissue tube onto a piece of white paper, then cut out the circle, making it slightly smaller than your trace line. (If you fold the paper into a few layers, you can cut out several circles at once.)

2. Cut the tube in half (you can make 2 holders per tube) and tape the paper circle to the bottom of each half.

3. Wrap a 2- to 2 1/2-foot strip of gauze around the tube, first taping the beginning of the gauze to the tube. Gently stretch and twist the gauze as you wrap it to give it some dimension. When you’ve covered the tube, cut the gauze and tuck the end under a nearby layer.

4. Finally, glue on googly eyes (or use the self-adhesive kind), then fill the mummy with candy treats.
