DIY Tutorial: Halloween Crackers + Free Printable Tags



 Yesterday, I shared our Modern Black, White & Chevron Halloween Party with you. Today I have a little Halloween freebie for you from the collection along with a fun tutorial that you can also view on Hostess with the Mostess.  When it came time to create favors for the party, I wanted something that was creative and one that could be enjoyed by children and adults alike.  I decided to create Halloween Crackers that can be filled with your favorite Halloween candy or healthy snacks.  Read on for step-by-step instructions + the free printable: "Happy Halloween" tags below!
