Upcycled Halloween Candy Canister From an Oats Container

Halloween is just not the same without candy right? So this year I decided to create something new for a candy dish for the trick-or-treaters and plus would be cute with my Halloween décor. I upcycled an old oats container into a Halloween candy canister. I love the way it turned out instead of just grabbing a big bowl in the cabinet and dumping all the bags of candy in it.
My Halloween décor this year is focused on using black and white as the main color theme. I have typically chosen to use bright orange, green, and purple but decided to change it up a little bit. I’m loving the way it is turning out so far and cannot wait to show the end results with everything pulled together. If you missed week 1, do not forget to check it out where I made a framed spider web by upcycling an old picture frame and used white yarn.
This candy canister would also be cute sitting on a kitchen table as a centerpiece. If you are having a Halloween party and plan to have a candy car, then this would be perfect. Maybe you are a teacher and wanting something different to hand out candy to your students. They would love this project.


I chose to place a label on the front that reads “human eyeballs.” I thought that would add a little extra fun to the Halloween theme besides just something cutesy.
