Spooky Eyeball Bucket
save
This spooky eyeball bucket project is perfect for little ones. For really young children you can help them along by cutting out the eyes ahead of time.
What you'll need
- Black plastic bucket
- Sandpaper
- Yellow construction paper
- Black marker
- White craft glue
- Black craft paint
- Scissors
For a more colorful bucket, use yellow, orange and red construction paper eyes.
Scuffing up the plastic with sandpaper helps the paint and glue stick to the surface better.
Use this as your trick or treat bucket or fill it with popcorn or candy and use as a fun centerpiece.
How to make it
If there's a design on the bucket, sand it down with sandpaper then scuff up the rest of the bucket.
Paint the bucket with black paint. This step is not necessary if the bucket is already black and does not have a design.
Draw several sizes and shapes of eyes on yellow construction paper. Cut the eyes out, keeping the two eyes stuck together rather than cutting them out individually.
Turn the eye shapes over so that the pencil lines are underneath.
Draw eyeballs on with black marker.
Glue eyes all over bucket.
