The first rule of Halloween is to have fun. The second rule of Halloween, in this or any time, is be safe. We have a way to check both of those boxes (and maybe to also become the talk of the neighborhood).
Introducing these homemade boo bags, made up entirely of products from Cheryl's Cookies and The Popcorn Factory. They make for a great way to pass out delicious Halloween treats and to do so in a socially distanced manner.
How to make boo bags
Follow these step-by-step instructions on how to make boo bags, and you'll be on your way to becoming the most popular house on the block.
- Get a tin of Halloween-themed popcorn. Eat all of its contents.
- Wash out the tin.

- Wait for the squeals of delight as trick-or-treaters find a spooky surprise waiting for them.
