Here are the big supplies you'll need:

We used a big ol' 17-inch beverage tub and cut out the bottom for our base. Our label was made out of a big white 20x22 piece of paper. The lid was created using a gold matte 20x22 piece of paper, and the logo and dots were made with 12x22 pieces of paper and a 1/2-inch hole punch. We used paint markers for the label and gold ribbon to make the handles all pretty.

1. First, trace out your design on a white poster board.

We traced our logo from a blowup of the label, but freehand is just as good!

2. Next, trace and cut the Halo Top® scoop out of paper.

Print an 11x11-inch picture of the scoop, trace, cut, and glue it!

3. Use a sparkly gold paint pen to color in your letters.

Halo Top® ice cream has that golden glisten to its label, so we used a sparkly gold paint pen to color in the main letters.

4. Punch holes out of colored paper. (We used a 1/2-inch hole punch.)

We got six groups of colored paper: brown, purple, pink, blue, gold, and yellow.

5. Glue your dots to your poster board.

We used little drops of glue to stick these colorful dots to the label.

6. Remove the white handles from the tub.

If they're having trouble budging, use a sharp craft knife to cut small slits in the tub's holes. That should help them get out (but be careful)!

7. Cut out the bottom of the tub. (We used the same sharp craft knife for this.)

If you'd rather not cut into hard plastic, there's an easy alternative: You can use the shape of the storage tub or something else large and round. Wrap it with cardboard, cut the height you want, and use that as the base for your Halo Top® pint!

8. Replace the white handles with gold ribbon.

Any gold ribbon will do, but make sure it's wide enough to sit comfortably on your shoulders. And take it from our trial and error: Glitter ribbon looks cute, but it gets EVERYWHERE.

9. Make the signature gold Halo Top® lid.

We cut two-foot-tall strips across the gold 20x22 piece of paper to wrap around the lip of the tub.

10. Glue your lid and label to the tub.

We used a hot glue gun and then some tape to hold it in place while it dried.

11. Step in, and let the HALOween begin!
