Glittery Jack-O-Lantern

Tuesday, October 6, 2009

I found this wooden jack o lantern cut out in the $1 bin at my local Michaels. He is 12", pretty big for $1. At that price, with a bottle of glue, orange glitter, black paper and some ribbon, you could make these for everyone. You have plenty of time before halloween.

You Need:

• wooden jack o lantern
• black construction paper or scrapbooking paper
• white glue
• orange glitter
• gold glitter glue (optional)
• 1 yard of halloween ribbon
• a bit of greenery
• pencil/scissors

Try this:

1. Trace the jack o lantern on the black paper. Cut out, glue to the back of the jack o lantern.

2. Cover the jack o lantern with glue and then orange glitter. Shake off excess glitter. Let dry.

3. Tie on greenery and bow made out of ribbon at top.

4. Optional: add some gold glitter accents in the eyes, nose and mouth.

You can make one of these in minutes!

Glitter on!
