Every year my church does a Trunk or Treat for Halloween. I am always looking for thrifty trunk or treat decorating ideas and something that can be put together quickly. If you haven’t heard about Trunk or Treat before it’s usually a church, school, neighborhood or community sponsored event where people gather up and park their cars in a big parking lot. They open up their trunks or truck-beds and decorate them. Then they pass out candy. It’s a fun way for kids to get a lot of candy in a short amount of time. Plus it’s a nice safe family friendly environment usually too.
As you know I am always trying to save as much money as possible so I found 15 amazing & thrifty Trunk or Treat Decorating ideas for you! Enjoy!
