List of Supplies:

- Pencil
- Scissors
Instructions to make Bat Treat Bags:
Step -1:
Select black, brown, white and pink colored craft paper for the bat treat bag craft. I’m using a 6 inches X 9 inches (you can keep this ratio) from the paper selected for the bag.
Step -2:
Leave a cm intact and then fold the paper into half lengthwise and attach the open sides to close that end. Simply fold up the intact 1 cm part over the other open end and glue them together.
Step – 3:
Fold up 2 inches of the paper from either open ends.
Step – 4:
Open the folded part from the bottom middle part and flatten the sides as neatly as possible. This will form 2 triangles on both sides.
Step – 5:
Fold the top open pointy end of the flap halfway towards the inside.
Step – 6:
Similarly, fold the other side towards the inside and overlap it with the previous part. Apply glue on the folded parts to close that end (this is the bottom side of the paper bag).
Step – 7:
Match the 2 opposite corners of the squares on both sides (of the bottom side) and create a crease on the bag on both sides.
Step – 8:
Open the last folds and flatten the bag neatly. Use scissors to cut a curved border along the top side of the paper bag.
Step – 9:
Trace and cut out the bat wings, ears, fangs and eyes from the template. Print the Template HERE.
Step – 10:
Attach the wing patterns on both sides of the paper bag.
Step – 11:
Attach the rest of the cutouts (ears, eyes and fangs) on the paper bag to complete the bat paper bag craft.
