Lollipop Tissue Ghost CUPCAKES

Okay parents, I know you are busy in October.  I know you got kids school stuff, and sports, and your work to do.  I know you have costumes to find, fall festivals to attend, and maybe even some holiday shopping already.  And I know you are still trying to make some memories with your kids for Halloween or help at the school Halloween party.  Well, I got your back!  My blissful friends, I just think there is no reason to re-invent the wheel when I comes to cute Halloween treats.  Our mamas in the 70’s and 80’s had the right idea with the easy lollipop tissue ghosts, right?  Kids love to make them and they are SO CRAZY SIMPLE for us moms!  I mean, everyone has toilet paper, right?  So I’m just taking it one step further and showing you this great idea I had to make Lollipop Tissue Ghost CUPCAKES!  Making this little ghost craft a cupcake makes it so your treat/craft activity for the school Halloween party, or that neighborhood “you’ve been BOO-ED” activity is done in a flash.  And it’s so dang cute.  Our mamas had the right idea . . . keep it simple.

Tissue Ghost Cupcakes for kids to make!

Isn’t this Halloween cupcake just the cutest?  And it’s way easier than some of that other stuff I’ve seen out there . . . 

 

 

 

How to Make Halloween Lollipop Tissue Ghost Cupcakes

 

 

The key to this craft or treat (it’s a little of both) is to use MINI lollipops.  I used Tootsie Pop Miniatures but you could also use Dum Dums or mini Blow P

ops.  The larger suckers work okaaaay, but they are a little heavy for the cupcake and they look a little too bulky.  So get little lollipops.

 

 

Halloween Cupcake ideas

Then you need some cupcakes.  You can use a cake mix like Betty Crocker to make it quick.  You can buy the cupcakes at the store, whatever helps make this easy!  If you want, have the kids frost and decorate their own cupcakes to make a longer, more involved activity.

 

 

 

How to make mini lollipop tissue ghosts

Here’s what you need to make the tissue ghosts:  Mini lollipops, black marker, baker’s twine or ribbon, and toilet paper squares (1 square for each lollipop you have).

 

 

 

How to make a tissue paper halloween ghost with lollipops

Take one square of bathroom tissue and place a lollipop in the center and wrap the tissue around the top.  Tie with the twine or ribbon so you can see the distinct ghost head.  Kids may need help tying the ribbon, depending on their age.

 

 

 

Mini Halloween Tissue Paper Ghosts

Add a face with the black marker.  You can have the kids to this too.  Here’s what it looks like when it’s done.

 

 

 

EASY Halloween Ghost Cupcakes!

Then simply insert the lollipop ghost into the cupcake and you are DONE.  See, that was so easy . . .

New movie coming out that I want to see. I remembe New movie coming out that I want to see. I remember when this happened in 1989. The boy Josh was lost in an abandoned mine in UT for 5 days. It was a miracle how they found him. He was about my age so it made an impression on me. Now this true story has been made into a movie called Faith of Angels. @faithofangelsfilm 
Check out the trailer here: https://upvir.al/158749/lp158749  DO YOU REMEMBER this news story?
Probably one of the best shows I’ve seen at @hal Probably one of the best shows I’ve seen at @halecentretheatre lately!! The Nutty Professor had us laughing all the way to the end and the music was clever and fun.  If you’ve been trying to decide about this one, I’d say don’t miss it! #halecentretheatre #thenuttyprofessormusical #halecentretheatresandy
Did you go to 801 Day at @hoglezoo in Utah? Ticket Did you go to 801 Day at @hoglezoo in Utah? Tickets were only $8.01 on 8/01 and the zoo opened at 8:01 am. 
I went with my nieces and nephews and it was VERY BUSY! (like Disneyland busy). We arrived about 11 am and every parking lot was completely full and side streets were filling fast. Needless to say we had to walk a bit in the heat just to get to the front gate. There were lines to get in, lines, at snack shops, and definitely a line for the train. BUT we saw some animals—-lions, tigers, bears (oh my!)…plus giraffes, zebras, and a leopard.  It was definitely worth $8.01 but it’s not for the faint of heart. A fun adventure! #hoglezoo #801day #familyactivities #hoglezooutah 🐒🐅🦒🐘🦓
So the amount of car wash centers popping up every So the amount of car wash centers popping up everywhere has made me curious. Why are they everywhere?! So we decided to try is and see what the fuss was all about. Here’s the PROS AND CONS we found:

Pros:
• Gentle yet very thorough wash—no scratching!
• Attendants right there to help you
• Fun lights and cool sprayers—it’s like a show!
• Powerful vacuums and extras for detailing

Cons:
• So expensive! This is not your regular $5 car wash. 
• They have limited hours. This one closes by 7 pm so no car washing whenever you want
• Kinda an eyesore to have a car wash in every corner in town. 

What do you think? What Pros and Cons have you found? Do you like these big car was centers?
