I don’t usually do a lot of Halloween decorating, but I do like to dress up our front porch for the Trick or Treaters. Last year was the first year that we weren’t going to be home for Halloween night, so I needed something to hold our Halloween candy.

These cute DIY Ghost candy bowl holders looked so cute and fit in perfectly with the rest of our fall porch decor. They were super easy to make and I actually had all of the supplies on hand.

Ghost Halloween Candy Holder Tutorial

Materials

  • round planter {If you don’t have one with legs you could always raise it up on a box or other riser. You could even use a round basket.}

  • round plastic bin that fits in your planter {mine was just from the dollar store}.
  • white twin flat sheet
  • black felt {alternatively you could get adhesive felt and skip the spray adhesive}
  • scissors
  • temporary spray adhesive

Instructions

  • Find the middle of the sheet and place it in the middle of the planter. Add the bowl. The front and back will be longer than the sides.

  • Fold the sheet under along the bottom, forming pleats as you move around the planter. You can cut the bottom of the sheet if you would like, but folding it under allows you to not destroy the sheet.

  • Cut ovals out for the eyes. You can do a mouth too if you would like. Use the temporary spray adhesive to attach to the sheet. The eyes can be removed when you’re done with the candy bowl so the sheet can be used again.

It still looks cute even without the candy too. 🙂

These ghost candy bowls could also be used inside for a fun candy bowl too and would be great for Halloween parties! You could even fill it with ice and use it as a drink holder.
