Some Halloween crafts are cute, some are creepy, and some are just the right amount of ridiculous — which is exactly why I love this DIY skeleton candy bowl. It takes a basic plastic skeleton and a simple Halloween bowl and turns them into a funny, spooky little candy holder that looks like your skeleton has been put in charge of the treats. Honestly, that feels safer than leaving the candy unattended around children… or me.
This is an easy Halloween party decoration you can make with inexpensive supplies, and it works beautifully for a front porch display, trick-or-treat station, Halloween table centrepiece, office candy bowl, or spooky movie-night setup. Fill it with candy corn, wrapped chocolates, lollies, mini pumpkins, or whatever treats mysteriously disappear before Halloween night.
The best part is that this project does not need fancy crafting skills. You are basically separating the skeleton pieces, attaching them to the bowl, and giving it a bit of personality. A hot glue gun will work for quick indoor decorating, but if you want your skeleton bowl to sit outside on a covered porch, a stronger craft adhesive such as E6000 is worth using so your poor little skeleton does not lose a leg halfway through the evening.
It is a fun, budget-friendly Halloween craft for adults, older kids, party decorators, and anyone who enjoys a project that makes guests stop and say, “Wait, did you make that?” Which, let’s be honest, is one of the best parts of decorating for Halloween.

Skelton bowls can be very expensive so why not make your own Halloween Party decorations? Take two Dollar tree items, the skeleton, and the bowl, and glue them together to create a fun Candy bowl for your Porch or Halloween party.
Start by dissecting your Skeleton into parts, you need to take the legs off, scissors or pliers will break the connection. If your skeleton doesn’t have joints, you can use a hot knife to cut the plastic easily.
Heat the knife on a gas stove then use it to slice through the Halloween Skeleton.
Use strong glue to secure the Skeleton parts back onto the Halloween Bowl.
