Tricks, Treats, and Severed Feet

I had a blast working on my latest project: three custom Halloween treat bags for three very lucky little ones!  I mean, who hasn't dreamed of going into a candy store and literally buying every cool, king-sized goodie in site?  Of course, this may have been your dream 20 years ago, but trust me, you'd have fun doing it now.  My only instruction in creating these Halloween dream bags was simple: "I want king-sized candy bars.  None of that fun-sized stuff.  Small candy bars aren't fun."  Well, we wouldn't want Halloween to not be fun now would we?

I went with a "gross-out" theme for my client's five-year-old little man.  A three foot long gummi snake creeping out of his bag, a very lifelike toy cockroach, and severed foot will most likely aid in tricking his older sisters.

Sweet treats for my client's little ladies: a large sugar daddy (but of course), ring pops, candy necklaces and glitter fake tattoos surround the crowning jewel of their bags: Justin Bieber hair accessories and clip-in, neon hair pieces.  I'm not going not going to lie, their Bieber Fever takes me back to my NKOTB days.  I mean, sometimes I wake up and wonder how it's possible I'm not Mrs. Jordan Knight.  Sigh.

Whether you're escorting your ghosts and goblins around your neighborhood this evening or attending an adults-only costume parti, Happy Halloween from Gifted.  King-sized.
