Take one if you dare, because taking two you'll be in for a real scare. To give your trick-or-treaters a bit of late-night-fright, create a pumpkin treat passing out a combo that works for Happy Haunting day or night. One smaller funkin painted with the phrase, ''Take One'' and the other larger pumpkin to read, "If You Dare.''

Looking for something a little more glam and a little less ghoulish? Display various glass canisters filled with all sorts of candy! They can mix and match their treats from this sweet display on a table top surface. And the labels — "Devilish Delights" and "Rotten Sweets" among them — will make them all the more tempting. 

The presentation is everything when it comes to impressing your local trick-or-treaters. Whether you are passing out candy gems or chocolate coins, one neat trick is to display the treats by piling them in a mountain of sweets inside this pirate-inspired treasure chest.

After all the vivacious trick-or-treaters hop up to your doorstep, you'll want to greet them with a bowl that reciprocates with their creative energy. Enter, the Martha Stewart graphic pumpkin candy bowl DIY.
