This is a cute item, but it isn't a good product to use for Halloween.  When it arrived, it looked cute!  After holding the basket for less than a minute, the lid broke.  The two lids are held on by one piece of the straw used to build it.  It broke in half immediately.  Toto the dog needs a good brushing, but it would last for a Halloween night.  If you want this item, be prepared to wire the lids to the handle because it definitely will break.  I would not recommend this item unless it is for show only.
