Then I saw these cute cupcake wrappers from Yummy Cupcake Crafts:
And I scrapbook! So I have a TON of fun paper that I could make those with! But I knew I would need a template. So I decided to make one and make a tutorial for you. (Ignore the horrible pictures!! It was 9:00 at night when I decided to do this!)
First you need a cup. A paper cup would work the best, but I only had plastic. And you want it to be the size of the cupcake tin you are going to use:

Then cut straight down to the bottom of the cup (as straight as you can) and cut the bottom out:

Lay the cup flat and trace around the cup on a piece of cardstock or chipboard. (There is not picture of me doing the actual tracing because a plastic cup doesn't lay very flat and I needed both hands.
When you are done it should look like this:

At this point you would cut it out and trace it on the back of whatever cute Halloween paper you have. But it was at this point that I realized that this looked really familiar and a template for these already existed.
So instead of doing all that work (you can if you want to though...) go get one of these:

So get the don't burn your hand cup holder thing and use THAT as your template!
And make some fun cupcake wrappers for Halloween!

u seriously exhaust me with all of these ideas!

I was just searching the net for a template for just this thing and here you are with a way to make it myself! Good idea! I'm on my way to make some.
Thanks!
I am so happy to have found this post! I ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS forget to buy those regular cupcake holders. This idea is perfect, crafty and more fun!
You're a genius.
