a trick and a treat

i have a trick and a treat for you today!
the treat is that after a month break from blogging, i am adding a post today.

just kidding, your treat is at the end of today's post. 

inside, outside, upside down around here lately. a porch project going on the front of the house. and with mr. traybella out of town last week, i rearranged everything again inside. i'll have posts on these later, but let's get to todays.

the trick: to buying halloween candy this early is to wrap it up!

in years past i have made halloween crackers and passed them out to all my trick-or-treaters. 

but this year i decided to change things up a bit...no surprise,

 i know {ahem}.

i purchased small paper bags (at michael's) and filled them with candy.

if i don't put the candy in something, i end up eating most of it by oct. 31.

then i buy more, eat more...you know the cycle.

i designed this cute little label for each of the bags.

simply taped it on, and stapled the tops closed.

the treat:  free printable labels for you!   just like the ones i put on my bags.   enjoy!

thanks for stopping in today.  i am glad i had something new to share!
