5 Incredibly Simple DIY Snacks For This Halloween
One Little Project

Throughout my time on Pinterest I have learned that not everything can be completed by the average human, not to mention a broke college student with limited resources. No, I cannot afford every product in your makeup tutorial. Yes, I want to make a chandelier out of sticks in the forest and a giant balloon, but do I have the products? Not at all. So for this Halloween I wanted to make a list of the easiest Pinterest do it yourself snacks with limited supplies for the less talented, people on budgets, and just plain lazy people. This ones for you, my friends.

1.) Halloween Pretzels

From Butter With A Side Of Bread's article on how to make Halloween pretzels three ways comes the cutest pretzel snack ever. They introduce the pumpkin pretzel, the alien pretzel, and the mummy pretzel from simple ingredients such as Candy Melts, M&Ms, coconut oil, and pretzels. You can get the full instructions on the page! So simple, yet so adorable.

2.) Monster Krispies


While you are completing your Halloween pretzels, keep the Candy Melt out for this next snack! From One Little Projects' website comes how to make monster krispies. All you need is some Candy Melt in vibrant colors, candy eyes, cooking oil, and a bunch of Rice Krispies. Seems like a perfect after trick-or-treating snack.

3.) Pumpkin Rice Krispie Treats


From your leftover Rice Krispies from the previous recipe, you can try this pumpkin rice krispie treat recipe from Cincy Shopper! All you need is 6 Cups Rice Krispie Cereal, 3 tbs butter, 1 bag of marshmallows, red & yellow food coloring, 12 Tootsie Rolls, 1 Green Fruit Roll-up for her exact size amounts. She gives great step by step directions that anyone can follow.

4.) Harvest Hash Chex Mix

Again from One Little Project's website comes Harvest Hash Chex Mix! Just pile Rice Chex cereal, pretzels, bugles, candy corn, candy corn pumpkins, and Reece's Pieces in a bowl, mix it up, and let the magic of this salty and sweet combination take you through Halloween.

5.) Zombie Brain Cupcakes


Lastly, I present to you Zombie Brain Cupcakes from Sugar Hero's website. This can really work with any cupcake recipe, the cute Halloween aspect comes from the design on top. With a piping tool (or a plastic bag with a hole in it) and some pink frosting, you can create your own zombie brains! Anyone can complete this sweet design just in time for Halloween.


Hopefully this has satisfied the cravings of my fellow less talented, budget conscious, and just plain lazy people. Shoutout to you, my friends. Happy Halloween!!

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
