Ingredients

Vanilla ice cream
Orange soda
Clear drinking cups

First, using the black permanent marker, draw jack o lantern faces on the cups. (Here are some inspiring Jack-o-Lantern Faces.)

When you are ready to serve, place two scoops of vanilla ice cream in each cup.

Frugal Coupon Living’s Orange Jack-O-Lantern Fruit Bowls Recipe – Orange Pumpkin Cups made with Fruit. A healthy fall treat idea. Serve these Jack o Lantern Oranges at your next Halloween Party!

Orange Jack-O-Lantern Fruit Cups

When it comes to holiday parties, the sugar that often loads the table is a lot. We have some amazing Halloween Food Craft Ideas, but in our most recent recipe, I wanted to provide a healthy snack option.

Have fun with this one and take a twist on the orange. Crave out a Jack O’ Lantern using an orange, hallow out and fill with fruit. It is the perfect healthy treat to a Halloween Class Party or even an afternoon snack.

Jack-O-Lantern Oranges

Just a few simple ingredients make these Jack-O-Lantern Oranges. Fruit and mixed fruit. I really love berries, but it is your choice. If you scoop out the oranges well, you can even use that to toss in your fruit salad!

You will need a sharp knife to help you cut out your face. We loved this highly rated kitchen carving knife (I have this in my home), we also used Kitchen Sheers to cut out some of the shape. If you worry about using a knife or scissors around kids, crate your adorable Jack-O-Lantern Fruit Cup using a Sharpie Maker! We did this with our Orange Jack-O-Lantern Floats.

Jack-O-Lantern Fruit Cups Ingredients

3 Medium Navel Oranges
1 cup Mixed Fruit – Your choice, I prefer berries

Yield: 3 Jack-o-Lanterns. Multiple as needed.

How to Make Orange Pumpkin Fruit Cups

This recipe is not too challenging. While the recipe is great for kids, an adult needs to be present for the slicing!

Slice off the tops of the oranges.

Using a spoon, scoop out the pulp and insides of the oranges. You can place those aside for your fruit salad or toss them. They could make some fresh orange juice!

Using a knife, careful cut out faces on each orange to resemble a Jack O Lantern orange.

Fill each orange with mixed fruit and serve.

Orange Pumpkin Fruit Cups Tip: Don’t want to carve with a knife? That is okay. Use a sharpie and draw the face on the front – that works too and is safe for little hands!

Halloween Poison Apple Dip

We have an incredibly cute and easy Halloween Food Craft and plus a bonus Halloween Craft for your October Halloween tablescape. Pair this sweet recipe with our salty and tasty Halloween Jalapeño Popper Mummies.

Halloween Poison Apple History

The first rotten apple we know of comes from the Bible. It was never rotten but rather an attractive piece of fruit. When Adam and Eve ate the apple from the Tree of Knowledge, they were instantly aware of good and evil. Immediately the apple built a bad reputation and it becomes a fruit often selected for the symbolism of evil.

We are introduced to the Poisoned Apple in the fairy tale, Snow White. When the Evil Queen gives Snow White a poison apple to kill her, it immediately causes her fall into an eternal sleep. In the Disney version, Snow White is saved by “true loves kiss” when a prince kisses her causing her to wake.

To carry on the tradition of this the poison apple, we put together a fun Halloween Food Craft; an incredibly easy poison apple craft and poison apple dip.

Cream Cheese & Caramel Apple Dip Ingredients

Luckily, the ingredients in this recipe contain no poison. The thought sure is fun, though, for the Holiday season. Rather this recipe is quite sweet and so good with sliced apples or graham crackers.

Poison Apple Halloween Craft Directions

Guys, I don’t have much for you. This poison apple craft is incredibly easy. You could look at the picture and instantly create the craft.

First, get two apples of similar shape and sizes. Cut each apple in half and fit them together.

Second, grab colored tables. We used blue staples but you could also use other colored staples, traditional silver staples or gold staples. Separate individual staples.

With your apple lined up, you will press individual staples until your green and red apple holding them two halves together and forming one apple. Continue this process up the seam of the apple.

Once your apple holds nicely together, you are done.

Warning: Do not use this craft for consumption or eating. Display it on your tablescape or high up for Halloween decor but keep it away from small hands and little kids.

Halloween Dollar Tree Wreath

Learn how to make a Halloween Dollar Tree Wreath for under $10. Black and Purple Mesh Ribbon, Halloween Ornaments and a wreath form for this budget-friendly outdoor Halloween craft.

Halloween Dollar Tree Wreath

You want to know something funny? I recall going to Jo-Ann Fabrics after one Halloween and they practically gave me the wreath on display. I had to pay for it, but I recall it feeling like a steal. The wreath was only a wreath form with orange mesh ribbon and I treat the wreath like a precious baby since I have it. Unfortunately, I must not treat my babies well because the mesh ribbon is looking awful and I have wanted to replace it for the longest time.

Realizing I could replace my beloved Halloween wreath for under $10 makes me wonder why I did not do this ages ago! I am so grateful how Dollar Tree Crafts have become the coolest thing to do. I think The Dollar Store realizing how much we appreciate their materials, too, because they are really stepping up their decor!

Don’t forget our other Halloween Dollar Tree Craft- How to Make a Sugar Skull.

Halloween Dollar Tree Wreath Supplies:

All Halloween Wreath supplies are found at The Dollar Tree except for our Hot Glue Gun.

Metal Wreath Form (Greenery/Gardening Aisle)
Black and Purple Mesh Ribbon (Seasonal Area)
Pipe Cleaners (Craft Aisle)
Halloween Decor Items of your choosing (Seasonal Area)
Hot Glue Gun

Dollar Tree Halloween Wreath Directions:

First, start by cutting your pipe cleaners into small sections, these will be used as ties to secure your ribbon to the wreath form. I personally cut my pipe cleaners into 3 pieces each.

Next, tie pipe cleaners sections all around the perimeter of your wreath, you will want to do this on the outer ring and also the second from the middle as well – I like to do them about 3-4 inches apart.

Now you’ll take one of your ribbon colors, you can choose which you’d like to do on each section. I started with purple on the outer ring. You’ll want to secure the end of your ribbon using one of the pipe cleaners ties you’ve already had tied on the wreath.

Once you’ve secured your end of the ribbon roll, you’ll want to create bunches to give that full bubbly appearance and you’ll want to secure a section every 3-4 inches where you have placed the pipe cleaners ties.

Repeat these steps all the way around the outer ring as well as the inner ring until you have a full wreath without decor.

Now comes the fun part, decorating! You can choose to get the round ornaments and pumpkins like I did to fill in the very inner ring, or you can find whatever Halloween decorations fit your aesthetic best, the dollar tree has TONS to choose from! You’ll just want to use a hot glue gun to secure these items to your wreath and Voila!

You’re finished. I love how simple and easy, yet adorable this wreath is! Not to mention I was able to purchase all the supplies for around $10, that’s a steal if you compare the cost of wreaths online!

Enjoy.

Celebrating the Day of the Dead or Halloween? We have a frugal-friendly Dollar Tree Craft. Learn the steps of How to Make a Sugar Skull with affordable supplies.

How to Make a Sugar Skull

We incorporated the traditional Latin-American Day of the Day into some of our Homemade Halloween Decor. This Halloween craft uses the basic of supplies and you might get away with creating this craft for only $1 if you have some of these supplies on hand!

What is Day of the Day?

The Day of the Dead “Día de los Muertos” is a three day festival commemorating friends and family who have passed away. It is often a misunderstood holiday as some attribute it to the American holiday called Halloween. This Latin American Holiday began with the Aztec Harvest at the end of summer. This multi-day festival is a time to honor loved ones who had gone before and not to recognize ghosts, goblins, witches or other scary mythological creatures.

The day of the dead celebration takes place October 31 to November 2. Children who have died are represented by skulls and are celebrated on November 1. Larger sugar skulls represent adults, whose celebration takes place on November 2. These dates coincide with the Western Christian holiday All Saints Eve and All Souls’ Day. The Mexican holiday also overlaps with the better known holiday, Halloween on October 31.

What is a Sugar Skull?

A calavera (English translation for skull is a representation of a human head. The term is most often used for edible or decorative skulls made from either sugar or clay. In celebrate of Día de los Muertos, calaveras were crafted. Sugar skulls represent a departed soul, often with the souls name written on the forehead. This too can be replaced with hearts, perhaps a number of hearts to represent the number of souls being honored. Sugar skulls are often adorned with colorful folk artwork. These adornments include hearts, flowers, paisley patterns, and dots.

Halloween Dollar Tree Craft Supplies

For this Halloween craft, we used a plastic skull from The Dollar Tree. It was only $1 (wink!) I also used chalkboard paint I had on hand and chalkboard markers. Hairspray will help keep the chalkboard markers in place once your craft is complete.

Sugar Skull Craft Supplies:

1 Plastic Skull (I got mine from the Dollar Store)
Black Chalkboard Paint
Chalkboard Fluorescent Markers
Optional: Aerosol Hairspray

Sugar Skull Craft Tools:

Paintbrush
Wax Paper (to protect your table)

Another option is to use chalkboard makers but to go over that with glow in the dark puffy paint. That will really pop with a black light and a makes fun glow in the dark party decor.

When picking up your Dollar Tree supplies, don’t forget our other Halloween Dollar Store Craft- How to Make a Halloween Wreath Under $10.

How to Make a Sugar Skull

Learning how to make a sugar skull is not that much of a challenge. I used the internet to get inspired including Pinterest and Etsy. Etsy has some cute sugar skull patterns. When creating your pattern, think hearts, circles (dots), flowers and paisley patterns. Always start with your larger patterns.

To get started:

First, paint the plastic skull with the black chalkboard paint. Use the wax paper underneath the skull to protect your table.

Allow paint to dry fully. I would suggest at least a day.

Once dry, begin drawing your designs on the skull with the chalkboard marker of your choice.

To make a faux sugar skull like mine, begin with the eyes. I drew flowers in the sockets.

Next, I moved to the forehead where I drew a flower using hearts.

I outlined the nose with an upside down heart shape. I added birds kissing on the chin.

Finish with larger designs before adding your details. Added details include swirls and dots.

Allow chalkboard marker to dry completely before touching it.

Lastly, if desired, seal the chalkboard marker in place by spraying evenly with hairspray about 6-inches from the skull surface.

Optional: Another idea is to use chalkboard makers but to go over that with glow in the dark puffy paint. That will really pop with a black light.
