Tissue Paper Pumpkin Favors

Tissue_Paper_Pumpkin_Favors
These little tissue pumpkins are the perfect treat to hand out to the neighbor kids this Halloween. The size of the pumpkin can be changed to suit how many pieces of candy you want it to hold by making smaller or bigger tissue rectangles. For this tutorial, the pumpkin held 6 small candies, enough to make my kids beg to tear into them!

Things you need:
Orange Tissue Paper (1 sheet of paper per pumpkin)
Candy
Masking tape
Green Floral Tape

Things to do:
1. Fold the tissue paper into thirds with the seam facing down.

  1. Wow! This is so cute and simple. I would probaby try a green chenille stem twisted and wound around the top instead of the tape then you can even add a little curl at the end of it to look like a vine –
