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!!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
