30+ Club Prizes

Following, you will see various pictures of the prizes we are giving away at our Customer Appreciation Dinner.  Please note, the little flower pot candy holders were made especially for our wonderful boss, Pam.  She is super supportive of our crafting for bank functions and we enjoy her input on everything we do!

The whole lot!


Halloween Tree


Adding to the prizes for our Customer Appreciation Dinner is what will become a Money Tree.  The tree itself was super cheap - Holliann found the branch in her back yard!  The purple color of the branch was achieved through spray-painting - our expert, Shara, was a great teacher to novice Holliann, who cannot believe the joy she was missing all these years!  We "planted" the branch in circular flower foam and secured our tree to the bucket with hot glue.  Rounding out the decorative aspects are spider webs, black and orange Christmas bulbs, and acid green garland.  We used black, purple, and green Styrofoam balls to conceal the flower foam base (each glued into place for ease of transport) and even added a few balls to the main body of the tree for a little more color.  Our coworker, Joyce, will complete the tree by folding various bills into bats, which we will attach with brightly-colored clothes pins.

Flower Pot Candy Containers



These Halloween Candy Containers were made from basic terracotta flower pots.  Shara was thumbing through a Christmas catalog and came upon Santa Claus faces of a similar shape.  We modified the design to suit our needs - a Halloween-themed customer appreciation party is fast approaching in late October!  Painting the flower pots proved to be the only difficult task - the pottery kept soaking up the paint!  Other basic supplies include colored felt, googly eyes, Sharpie pens, ribbon, faux leaves, shear fabric, and standard bolts.  Floral foam inserts fill up excess space, allowing Halloween candy to sit towards the top.  The final product will be shrink-wrapped and tied with Halloween ribbon.  We know these will make fabulous door prizes!
