How to Make Cute Halloween Candy Bats

You can’t have Halloween without the treats! So we might as well make them cute 😉  Laura from  Dacian Moon Handmade  will show you, step by step, how to turn a normal candy bar into vampire bats. This bat can close his wings around the candy bar.



Candy Bats



CRAFTS MATERIALS NEEDED:

– black cardboard
– little chocolate
– pen
– scissors
– paper glue
– self adhesive eyes







Step 1.

Measuring the right size, we leave 2 cm above and below the chocolate. On the sides we let 4 cm.







Cut the cardboard to the right size.








Step. 2

We measure chocolate on board, marking the corners.







Draw two lines from the upper markings to the edges, like this.







Step 3.

Draw a bat wing on the right side, based on the markings. Like this.







Draw another one on the left side.







Step 4.

Next, we will draw some feet for our bat – not too complex because you’ll find it hard to cut when is ready.







The feet looks like this, because the bat has claws 😀







To finish our design we must add the head…







… so, draw it as a half of a circle with two pointy ears.







Step 5.

Cut it out.







It will look like this.

Add the eyes.

Bend the wings up…

How to Make Valentines Day Cards with Fist Holding Lollipops

I saw somewhere a handmade Valentine’s Day card with a little girl or boy holding a lollipop and I thought it was so cool. It stuck in my mind and I decided to try it out for my daughter’s Valentine’s Day card that goes out to her classmates. This is a great way to personalize your child’s Valentine’s Day card … as it display’s your child within the card. Now in a perfect situation, I would have printed this card out with colors, but of course I ran out of ink. And, I also would have printed this out on white card stock, however Walmart only had card stock in bright colors. So, decided for yourself which elements you want your card to have. Have fun.

Also, this is a craft that has to be mostly done by and adult…as a craft knife is needed. Also, you need to prepare the image on the computer…so if you have an older child and they know how to do this, then by all means, let them help.

    

How to Make Valentines Day Cards with Fist Holding Lollipops



Crafts Materials Needed:

Computer, Printer, Card Stock, Lollipops, Scissors, Craft Knife (for Only Mom or Dad to Use)

Step 1



step1 : Take a Picture of Your Child



Ask your child to hold out their hand in a fist. Do a better job than I did. I am an awful photographer. Oh well.

Step 2



step2 : Print Out Pictures of Child



I too k my picture into Adobe Photoshop. I then cut her cute little arm off and made it bigger so the hand looked closer / larger. This is NOT a necessary step if you are a better photographer. 🙂

Then make 4 of them so they are the right size for a Valentine’s day card.


Step 3



step3 Cut Cards Into Separate Cards



Cut into 4 separate cards.

Step 4



step4 Cut Slits in Card and Put Lollipops Thru



(For Parents / Adults Only). Take a craft knife. and cut on the left AND right side of the fist. Then put the lollipop thru like this.

Step 5



step5 : Hand Out Your Cards



Once you get the hang of it, they are really easy to make. Make sure to make enough for all of your child’s classmates.
