mummy treat cups
As I continue to search for fun crafts for our block Halloween party, I came across these mummy treat cups and thought I would share. (If you’re looking for something a bit more spooky, the orange bow and bow tie can be replaced with a thin mouth out of black craft paper.)
Here’s what you’ll need:
- Plastic or paper cups, bathroom sized
- White cotton fabric, an old white t-shirt could work great
- Medium wiggle eyes
- Black sheet of construction paper (or orange felt)
- Scissors
- Glue stick
- White craft glue
Here’s how:
- Cut a small section from the t-shirt, depending on how many treat cups you will be making. Start with a section about 6″ x 6″. Cut that section into strips ½ inch strips.
- Use the glue stick to line one side of a t-shirt strip, then starting at the bottom of the cup, wrap around and press in place. Repeat until entire cup is covered.
- Use white craft glue to attach wiggle eyes.
- Cut bows out of felt or cut a thin line from the black construction paper. Apply with craft glue.
- Fill your cups with fun treats: gummy worms, chocolate candies or candy corn!

Halloween parties have never had such cute invitations and decorations. I love the invitation without the scare. Spooky is great for little ones. I have never liked the scary faces but this makes a great halloween theme (or as I like to call it Fall-o-ween party) for children. I really must have this darling invitation for my little grandsons. It will be treats (at Mimi’s house) all around. I know how to have them love me, bribe them with fun!! They are small for such a short time and I intend to make the most of it.
