BOO with Fashion Treat Buckets

It's Boo Bucket time at Mimi's.  Every year I create fashion treat buckets for the grands to match their Halloween costumes.  The buckets come from Michael's Arts and Crafts and I use what is in the craft room to make it personal to each of the kids.  The start of Halloween starts with the arrival of Mimi's buckets.

Clip Art from Disney website
Pattern bat adhered from the inside,  Ranger's Soot Glitter Glue outlines the bats and adding movable eyes on the outside of the bucket.
Catboy, Gekko, and Owlette
Blue, Green, Pink glitter paper respectively.
Clip Art for each PJ Mask, lighting, geckos, and symbols for each character.
Spellbinders (appropriate for Halloween) feather die cut with gold glitter paper.  If you run this back and forth and few times the thin die will cut the heavier glitter cardstock.  The tail is a boa, cut and the end sealed with E6000 glue for Catboy.

Yikes!  No bucket year.

I always have fun with my buckets.  My husband's one request is "Deb, don't glue anything on the outside."  He wants me to use the buckets over again.  My reply?  "No promises."

It's wonderful to have traditions!

    1. Connie, I always end up buying new ones. This year two of the four should be able to be used next year.
