Jack Skellington Craft – Nightmare Before Christmas

Last Updated on June 7, 2023 by Ellen Christian

My daughter is a huge fan of Tim Burton so she was absolutely thrilled to see this Jack Skellington craft. This goody bag is perfect anytime you need a gift bag whether that’s Halloween, Christmas or a birthday.

You can use the simple brown lunch bags you buy at the grocery store. But, you may want to use a heavier weight bag if you’ll be putting something heavy in it. 

If you have seen Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas, you probably remember the song What’s This? I decided to create a Jack Skellington Craft in honor of the release of the Disney Classics Box Set since that song is included.

  89. What a great idea! I love that stylish bag. My fav. song used to be "A Whole New World" from Aladin but now it's the Rapunzel song, not sure what it's called but it's when they are in the boat watching the lanterns floating ".....and at last I see the light..." - you know that one, right? LOL!
