Super Mario Inspired Trunk or Treat Idea

Super Mario Inspired Trunk or Treat Idea

Make trunk or treat super fun this year with this Super Mario Inspired Trunk or Treat Idea. These trunk or treat decorations are sure to be a fan of your game-loving children (or husband!). You can make this easily using the Super Mario Trunk or Treat Decorating Kit. Check out all the gamer details in this ultimate trunk or treat set up.

It’s best to make the "bricks” that are used on the inside of the trunk, the top of the trunk and for the Star Stand-Ups ahead of time to save you time the day of the trunk set up. To make the bricks, start with a combination of a smaller and medium size square cardboard boxes (a moving box works great!). Wrap with smaller sized box with the Brick Wall Backdrop and the medium size box with the Yellow Paper Roll. Clear packing tape works best when wrapping the boxes. Next, decorate the yellow boxes with a question mark on the front side and use a Sharpie® Marker to draw a circle on each corner of the box. You can download the Free Printable Super Mario Question Mark here!

 

To put together the Star Stand-Ups, you’ll stack the brick wrapped boxes on the bottom, a yellow wrapped box and another brick wrapped box on the top. You can use tape to keep the boxes in place. Next, you’ll want to blow up the Gold Star Mylar Balloon using helium. In the top box, place floral foam on the inside first before wrapping it. Attach a Balloon Stick to the gold star balloon and put the stick in the floral foam to keep the balloon standing straight. Use enough floral foam to help support the balloon. That completes the star stand-ups!

To cover the inside of the trunk, start by using the Cobble Stone Plastic Tablecloth Roll. You will want to cover the bottom of the inside of the trunk and the bumper with the cobblestone tablecloth. You can use clear packing tape or Gorilla® Tape works really well to adhere the tablecloth to the car. Next, use the Cloud Print Gossamer Roll to cover the inside of the car using tape to adhere to the car. 

 

Next, using the Metallic Gold Dessert Plates and Metallic Gold Dinner Plates you’ll make the hanging “coins”. Take 2 paper plates and attach to the fishing line by placing them in-between the the gold plates. Hot glue works well to attach the plates to the fishing line. Make a full string of paper plates and hang from the roof of the car. You can make some strands using the dinner plates and some using the dessert plates for variation in size.

Now you’ll want to place in these adorable DIY Mushrooms. You will also want to make these ahead of time since there is some dry time involved. These adorable mushrooms are easily made from Styrofoam Cones, Red Plastic Bowls, White Acrylic Paint, a Round Dauber and Green Cardstock. See the full tutorial on how to make the DIY Mushrooms.

Move to the top of the car and put together the POWER UP Sign. Using the Square Yellow Paper Dessert Plates, adhere the White Adhesive Letters to the plates to spell POWER UP. Attach the plates to the top of the car using tape. Next, use two of the brick covered boxes and one of the yellow paper wrapped boxes and place on the very top of the car. You’ll want to use strong tape, like Gorilla® Tape to get the boxes to stay in place.

Easily make a DIY Ball & Chain to add some more Super Mario themed decorations to the car. Use a large soccer ball and spray paint it black. Then cut out the eyes using black and white cardstock. Make the "chain" loops from black cardstock as well. Finish by wrapping a cardboard box with Weathered Wood Paper.

With potential social distancing measures in place with your trunk or treat this year, there are lots of ways to make trunk or treat still fun and safe for everyone! To keep separate from each of the cars, build stanchions to encourage social distancing. Those who are handing out candy can use these grabbers to avoid picking up the candy and masks to keep everyone safe. Hand sanitizer can be available too so that everyone keeps their hands clean.
