Even with Halloween still more than a month away, the busy elves on Martha Stewart's design team have come up with the Holiday goodies we'll soon see on the shelves at Michael's. Delightful food packaging kits (which I love and find so helpful!) as well as party favor ideas, festive window clings and snowflake kits, puppet kits for an inventive, childlike twist and a frosty village scene for table display will all be available in stores and online beginning in November. Below are some samples. Thanks to Kenn for supplying the imagery.
This set of iced cookie boxes contains six boxes, patterned tissue paper, ribbon and festive seals for $12.99. I love the ornate edging.


For a bigger batch of cookies, you can get these large gingerbread cookie boxes or tall gingerbread cookie boxes on the right. Each set includes six boxes, decorative tissue and labels for $9.99.

Gingerbread house favor boxes and Santa treat boxes stand ready to be plucked by guests at a holiday party. They can also be used as gift boxes for under the tree, decorative ornaments or stocking stuffers: $7.99 and $9.99.

Beautiful glittered snowflakes or a snowy deer-family scene will enliven any window. The snowflake kit is $14.99 and includes four snowflake designs, glitter in four colours and glitter glue. The deer-family window cling is $9.99.

Decorate your mantel or holiday table with this snowy village scene, which is easy to craft: $17.99

Individual puppet kits ($4.99) or the entire set ($14.99) can make inventive party favors or keep the kids entertained at your holiday get-togethers.
