I first published this post when my daughter, Emmie, was only three. That year, I was scrambling for cute tags for her preschool Halloween treat bags and just couldn't find anything I loved. So, I made my own!
Fast forward ten years, and Emmie's now thirteen (!!!). She even helped me revise this post during fall break recently - proof she's still influencing what shows up here on Lamberts Lately.
Supplies Needed
- White cardstock (65-110 lb) - sturdier than regular paper so your tags hold up on goodie bags.
- Color printer - an inkjet or laser both work; just be sure to set your scale to 100%.
- Paper trimmer or scissors - trimmers give you cleaner, straighter cuts.
- Hole punch - for threading ribbon or twine through the tags.
- Ribbon, string, or baker's twine - ties the tags onto treat bags or gifts.
- Optional: Sticker paper - print the tags as peel-and-stick labels instead of tie-on tags.
- Optional: Laminator - makes tags reusable year after year.
How to Use the Halloween Tags
I purposely kept these gift tags pretty general. The fun designs in these graphics coordinate, meaning you can mix and match the gift tags you use for your Halloween celebration. All of the name sections are blank so you can fill in as needed!
There are lots of different uses for the printable gift tags you'll find in this post.
- Class goodie bags
- Candy treats for coworkers (simply attach candy to the back of the tags)
- Halloween night treats
- Party favors for a Halloween party
- Sticker labels for a Halloween craft
- Label for a plate of cookies for neighbors
- Party food table labels
I also included a completely blank fold-over label at the bottom of the post that is great for either treat bags or labels for a food table at a fun Halloween party. Just fold them tent-style!
What You'll Get
In this set, you'll get the following gift tags...
- Blank (Orange) Treat Tags (Half-Fold Treat Bag Toppers)
- Boo to You Halloween Favor Labels (Half-Fold Bag Toppers)
- Bugs & Kisses Square Halloween Labels

Label Printing Tips
- These free printable Halloween tags are for personal use only; no resale or commercial use is permitted.
- When you download the printables, you'll open a pdf file in a new tab. You can either press the printer icon to send to your printer or the downward-facing arrow to download the pdf to your device.
- I recommend printing these in color on 8.5x11" white cardstock for the best results. I also recommend cutting these out with a straight paper cutter, but scissors work just fine if you don't have one.
- An at-home printer works just fine - this is the home inkjet printer I use!

Troubleshooting
- Colors look dull or smear: Make sure you're printing on bright white cardstock. Let the ink dry fully before handling, and switch to a "Best" quality print setting.
- Tags printing too small or too large: Double-check that your printer scale is set to 100% (Actual Size) instead of "Fit to Page."
- Margins cutting off the design: Use standard 8.5x11" paper and select "Borderless" printing if your printer allows.
- PDF won't open: Download the file to your computer and open it with the free Adobe Acrobat Reader. Most browsers have a built-in reader, but Acrobat is more reliable.
- Edges aren't straight: A simple paper trimmer makes all the difference - but sharp scissors work in a pinch.
- Want reusable tags? Run the printed tags through a laminator before cutting. Punch your hole afterward and reuse them year after year.
