How to Make Cute Halloween Treat Bags
When you want to create a bagful of Halloween treats for all the kids in your life come the end of October. This cute “googly eye” Halloween Treat Bags are easy to make using your computer printer and fun to give.

I recently got a new Expression Premium XP-830 wireless Small-in-One printer. It is ideal for all the creative projects I like to make like the trick or treat bags.

Ed and I have been sharing a printer since we moved to the lake house. It uses WIFI, but every time I print something, I have to go to the other side of the house where he works to get it.
Not a very good use of my time. I also missed my previous printer that had an auto-document feeder.
I use the printer for so much…regular printing, free printables, photos and more. I take it to its limits to see what it can do so there is no need to ever have to go to a print shop.
Since my new Epson printer can print out envelopes, I figured it could handle printing out thin paper bags that I found at the craft store. It did the job beautifully.
I used the lower paper tray, but depending on the size of the bags you use, you could probably use the envelope printing tray, too.
How to Make Halloween Treat Bags Using Your Computer Printer

- Measure the width of your bag, then create a file with an image of a horizontal line using the bag width measurement in your photo editing software. Type TOP on the page. This will become your paper bag placement sheet.

2. Center and tape bag to the print-out under the horizontal line.

3. Click to download the Boo Y’all .pdf file.

4. In your photo editor, center the downloaded image under the horizontal line on the paper bag placement sheet file.

5. Head back over to the printer and load the sheet with the bag taped on it face down into the paper loading tray.

6. Print it out.

8. Glue eyes onto the center of the “O”s in the word boo.

8. Once glue is dry. Fill with candy.

I only needed to make a few Halloween treat bags since I won’t be getting any kids knocking on my door on Halloween night.
