I've decided to make candy bouquets for some coworkers and friends. The dollar store had most of the items 4 plastic Halloween cups for a dollar, round foam (2 in a package) which are perfect for the cups, a dollar each. curling ribbon 5 in a package for a dollar, 2 bags of candy from the dollar store (not such a great selection for what I wanted so I only grabbed a couple there).
I did have to go to Michael's for glue for the glue gun and a few decorations to add to the bouquet. Oh and I got the crafting grass at the dollar store as well.
This picture is the start of the bouquet, I will take another once it's complete. The "Boo" is a wooden extra I found at Michael's for .69 cents. I think the most expensive part of this will be the candy, but I'd be buying that anyways to hand out at work.

Quick but cute decorations for Halloween
This quick crafting idea cost me $4.00 to do. I found the black plates at goodwill for .99 cents each, the set of three face stickers at goodwill as well for .50 and the wall sticker was at goodwill for .50. Not exactly elegant but the kids think they are cool. The plate rack is on my dining room wall, I can change the plates for each season. I guess a fraction of the spiderweb can be included in this but I used so little, I got 1 bag at the dollar store for $1.00.
