I know Halloween is still more than a month away, but I wanted to share a quick tip that will save you a little money. {And don't we all like a money saving tip?} Last year, I made this for my son's lunchbox.
It is a box of Smarties wrapped in gauze {that you buy at the pharmacy}. Cute, right? This year, I plan to wrap the entire contents of the lunch boxes like this, but gauze is expensive.
However, when I was at the grocery store last week, I saw a package of cheesecloth for $1.99. Once I cut it into strips, won't it make great inexpensive wrapping for my Mummies?
I was so pleased with this discovery... I just had to share it. I can already think of some other fun projects I can use it for. I will be sure to share them with you soon. :-)
