Sometimes the trash is so full that my husband looks like WWE Wrestler John Cena pulling it out of the trash can to take it outside, which totally makes me giggle.
My favorite trash bags are Hefty Ultra Strong Kitchen Trash Bags.  Not only are they lower price and cheaper than Glad, but  they are the best bag ever.  They have superior strength with their Active Tear Resistant Technology, and they have a break resistant grip drawstring.
Plus, they have Arm & Hammer patented odor neutralizer and are available in several scents.
- Clean Burst
- Citrus Twist
- Lavender & Sweet Vanilla
- Crisp Orchard Apple
- White Pine Breeze
- Tropical Paradise
- Pomegranate Mist
- Scent Free
My favorite is the Crisp Orchard Apple scent. Â It’s perfect to add a touch of scent to your kitchen!
I love finding things around my house to make fun Halloween decorations. Â Trash bags are so versatile. Â You can do so much with them!
One thing I use them for are glowing ghosts. Â If you’re having a Halloween party, they are a perfect decoration to hang from the light fixture or ceiling fan to spook your living room up!
Supplies:
- 5 white trash bags
- 1 glow stick
- twine or yarn
- white duct tape
- black permanent marker
Cut the drawstring off each of the five bags.
Then take 3 bags, wad them up and stuff into the bottom corner of one trash bag.
Tie off the neck of that trash bag to form the head.
Use the permanent marker to make a ghost face. Â Then, use a darning needle to form two holes and run a piece of twine through the holes in the top of the head and tie it off into a knot.
Tape a glow stick to the top center of the body.
Take the last trash bag and fold one bottom corner behind it so it’s the same shape as the body of the ghost, and tape the top of it over the glow stick.
Then, cut that top trash bag into shreds.
Now hang your ghosts all over the house!
If you need trash bags you can trust, pick up some Hefty Ultra Strong Kitchen Trash Bag. Â Don’t forget to grab a coupon before you go!

So creative and fun activity to do with the kids. I’m sure they will enjoy this one 😀
That is so great! Who needs to buy Halloween decorations when you can just make your own?
These are super cute ghosts to make at home. I know my kids would love this craft if they were to make them.
We make garbage bag ghosts each and every year. Such an easy and fun craft that always holds up well to our crazy Chicago weather. It always rains or snows on Halloween–no fun!
That is such a neat idea for a cheap DIY project. Thanks for sharing Stephanie!
What a fun idea, my kids would love this activity for sure. Glad you share this with us
I’m not at all crafty, but I’m fairly sure I could handle making these fellas. Cute and simple!
Wow. How easy is that? Even I can do that and I am horrible at crafts. Lol.
Those are so cute. I should make them soon for my kids.
Your glowing trash bag ghosts are so cute. I’ll have to pick up some Hefty trash bags so i can hang some of these ghosts outside my house for Halloween.
Those look fun to make and are cute as well. I make Halloween wreaths with Hefty Trash Bags already and I’ll try to make these too.
