I always print my printables directly onto 160 gsm cardstock using my Epson Ecotank Printer rather than regular paper, this way they are a little more durable and the pens do not bleed through to the other side. However, if you do not have a home printer then just pop to a library and use theirs. I am also a big fan of Colour Me Kids Skin Coloured Pencils as they are brilliant for adding different skin tones.

How to Use:

1. Print: First, print out your favorite designs. These printables are perfect for home printers and can be printed on standard A4 or letter-sized paper. You can even use cardstock for a sturdier tea light wrap.

2. Color: Let the kids (or yourself!) get creative with colors. From spooky pumpkins to eerie ghosts, these candle holders are a fun canvas for expressing your Halloween spirit.

3. Cut: After coloring, carefully cut along the outer edges of the design. The dotted line on the square indicates where you’ll fold.

4. Fold and Glue: Fold along the dotted line and glue or tape the front sides to form a wrap. You don’t even need to use a hot glue gun, a thin layer from a glue stick works well Make sure the top part of the character stands upright to give it that cute, spooky look!

5. Place the Tealight: Once assembled, place a battery-operated tealight inside the candle holder. The candlelight will give a soft, warm glow that’s perfect for setting the Halloween mood.
