Personalized Tombstone Party Favor Boxes for Halloween
; "Pinterest"){kind=small}
We are having a neighborhood Halloween party and I wanted to make some unique party favors for the kids. I designed some tombstone-shaped favor boxes to fill with candy.
These tombstone-shaped boxes are perfect for party favors, trick-or-treaters, or for goodies at classroom Halloween parties.
And we even made them customizable so you can personalize them with your guests' names or with fun Halloween sayings.
All you need is the printable Tombstone Favor Boxes that you can find in our Etsy shop.
Once you download the .DOCX file, open it in Microsoft Word/Office to edit. You can add whatever phrases you like to either of the box designs. (If you don't have Word or want to let the kids label the boxes by hand, the set also includes a print-ready PDF version.)
After customizing the templates with some funny epitaphs, I printed out a few copies of each of our tombstone shape templates onto white cardstock. (Make sure you use cardstock instead of regular paper, or else it won't be heavy enough to hold up.)
Then, I cut them out and scored along the fold lines, then folded them up. If you notice, there are double lines on the front and back of the tombstone faces... don't fold on the interior black lines, just the exterior ones. The middle ones are just for decoration.
To form the final box, I just applied a little double-sided tape (our super-sticky double-sided tape sheets work great for this) on the tab on one side, and stuck it to the other side. One more piece of tape to adhere the tab on the bottom of the box, and that's it!
These cute tombstone favor boxes are perfect to fill with candy or other treats for a Halloween party or for extra special trick-or-treat packaging.
