#3 Spooky candy bucket

If you’re planning on leaving out a candy bucket so you won’t have to open the door so often, how about putting a spin on it and making it themed? Maybe the Wicked Witch of the West didn’t have the best ending, but this bucket is bound to bring out a chuckle or two from the children that come up to it!

Materials:

  • a bucket
  • witch legs (or cardboard, yarn, fabric, and some paint)
  • styrofoam or floral foam
  • Halloween candy

Instructions:

In the bucket, you should arrange the foam so that nothing can fall to the sides. Then take your witch legs (be it that you buy them, you have them around the house from another decoration, or you make them yourself) and stick them in the foam so that they won’t be easily taken out. You can also use cardboard to keep the candies from falling into the bucket.

All that is left is to add the Halloween candies and place it on your porch with some other decorations and a sign!
