How-To

Halloween Silhouette Lollipop Labels

Paper cut into shocking shapes can turn ordinary items into spellbinding party favors. Despite their store-bought appearance, these goodies are dead easy to create at home with craft punches, which make quick work of cutting precise shapes.

Dole out extra-spooky sweets this Halloween: lollipops bearing striking black-and-white labels.

1. Wrap lollipops (ours have black-and-white swirls, to evoke spider webs) in cellophane bags and tie closed with ribbon. 

2. Use a jumbo circle punch to cut backgrounds, then use extra-large Halloween craft punches to cut shapes. 

3. With a glue stick, attach shapes to circles; affix to wrappers with double-sided tape.
