We all know that Halloween is slowly approaching, and out of all holidays and festivities, Halloween is certainly my favorite! Yet, the sad part is, I have to find the rest of my bat girl costume!

Every Halloween I always find myself going from party to party, and knowing that I should bring a gift or two to the guests house, this fun DIY makes it very easy for me to throw something together that suites the Halloween spirit, and still brings in cheer to the kitchen!

Enjoy!

Tools and Materials:

O Bat template

O White or cream card stock

O Scissors

O Xyron Creative Station with permanent adhesive cartridge

O Black beans

O White beans (like cannellini)

O Large jar or container

O Bubble wrap, empty plastic container with lid, or other item to act as filler

Bat Jar How-To:

1. Print bat template on card stock. Trim card stock to a size to fit the jar or container, and run through Xyron so the front of the template is covered in adhesive.

2. Peel paper to expose adhesive. Cover the black area with black beans, and the white area with white beans.

3. When the sheet is fully covered, curve and slide into jar or container. Press against glass.

4. Fill jar with white beans.

Tip: To offset the amount of beans needed to fill the jar, place an empty plastic container or a ball of bubble wrap in the center of the jar. Fill around the item and to the top of the jar with white beans.
