Crochet Halloween Treat holders

Create these cute crochet Halloween treat holders!

With Halloween just around the corner I wanted to create some adorable decorated crochet Halloween monster treat containers for my son and to hand out to trick or treaters too (we don’t get that many!).

I used my son’s mashem containers for the container part as we had many laying around the house!

These are so adorable and would make a great gift filled with your favorite treats!
