Halloween Crafts

This past weekend Mom and I got our craft on! We made some cute (and easy) Halloween decorations for our homes. 

Here's what we made: 

The jars were repurposed wedding decor :) Here's how we did it!

What you need:

- jars

- mod podge

- tissue paper

- paint or construction paper

- googly eyes optional

What you do:

Cut up your tissue paper into squares. Use the mod podge to glue your tissue paper squares all over the jar. When it's covered, put a coat of mod podge on top. Make the face for the appropriate Halloween character. Mom painted her faces on, I mod podged construction paper faces on. For Frankstein, we painted the lid black and added screws for a finishing touch. For the mummy, I made a few layers of strips of the tissue paper and added googly eyes.

The cans were even simpler! We saved cans for a couple of weeks.

What you need: 

- paint

- cans

- wine corks

- ribbon 

What you do: 

Peel the labels off your cans. Paint the cans orange and the tops green. Paint your corks green and hot glue them on as stems. Tie some ribbon on the stem for leaves. Paint a cute jack-o-lantern face. Ta-da! Pumpkin cans!

Super easy projects to add a little Halloween to our homes :)
