I’ll be honest, there’s nothing really that new about this idea, they are just basic sweetie bags with a Nestabilities Label die cut topper but with a slightly different take on using jelly beans and a chance to use the new bubble stickers I’ve found this year.
Both the stickers and jelly beans are from Poundworld. There was a good variety of different sticker packs and I think I got one of each, some were scary and some were cute.
Wearing disposable plastic gloves I sorted the jelly beans into colours and then looked at the stickers to work out a theme for each colour ….. so the green ones became spiders eggs …..
……. the black ones became bat poop …![Halloween Treat Favor Bags Dracula Blood Capsules Halloween Treat Favor Bags Dracula Blood Capsules](http://lh4.ggpht.com/-vw-n58EYUxo/TocGWaz7KrI/AAAAAAAAQSo/A33MRDDMbTY/Halloween%252520Treat%252520Favor%252520Bags%252520Dracula%252520Blood%252520Capsules_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800)

On the back of each topper I wrote “Dare you eat one?”

And as I had a few spare black beans I added one to some of the packets to give the (warped illusion) that one could have gone off!

With just a bit of imagination you can come up with all sorts of awful names! From two bags of beans I made nine bags, which is pretty good going!

Ohh...I LOVE these Helen. *Ü* I always look forward to seeing what you come up with for Halloween! *Ü* TFS. I just wish we had a Poundworld locally. Poundland yes but not PW. *Sigh* ~Glen~
Nice! The content description really fits the jellybean color. I love your idea!
Heheheheh! These are just fantastic!! I think I'd have managed to make one or two bags as I'd have NEEDED to test the jelly beans.....!!
Hi Helen - How should we close the bags? I attempted with glue that didn't really work out well so I used small staples but wanted to avoid them. Any tips?
My apologies for not adding this to the post but whenever I use loose sweets in a project I use my electric bag sealer ..... this is just a quick post dating back a couple of years , when I used my sealer on quite a few projects

Perhaps if you don't have a sealer, just fold bag ends over and seal with double sided tape?
