I LOVE this time of year. I just get giddy over the weather, the fun costumes, the decorations, the baking, the photo ops with my kiddos… and oh yeah… the crafts! {grin}
And I’m thrilled to have hung out with the fabulous ladies of Eighteen 25 this week sharing a little Spooktacular fun for their annual Halloween blog party! So many fun ideas from so many talented bloggers. You’ll want to check it out!
For me, I made these easy and totally kid friendly jack-o-lantern Halloween party favor crafts using plastic Easter eggs. You needed something to do with all of those anyway, right?! {snicker}
You’ll need:
- Plastic Easter eggs
- Mod Podge & brush
- Crepe paper (orange, black and green)
Super simple steps:
- Fill your egg with candies.
- Paint your closed egg with Mod Podge and wrap it with orange crepe. Allow it to set for a few minutes.
- Add a funny or scary jack-o-lantern face with black crepe and Mod Podge.
- Twist a 4″ piece of green crepe for the stem and attach with Mod Podge.
- Allow the eggs to set for several hours until completely dry.
As always, I hope you’re inspired to craft, bake, create and CELEBRATE!
