Halloween Projects


Halloween Is almost here and I am SUPER EXCITED!

I decided to make a few cheap projects; I got the idea from the Women's Day Magazine. The first it the Candy Corn Wreath. The Second is the Candy Corn Tree. Here is a brief tutorial on how to make each one.




Material you will need:

Black duct tape
Styrofoam Wreath - White
Styrofoam block
Hot Glue Gun
Black Ribbon
Brach's Candy Corn
Branches from out side
Vase or Container

(all materials can be purchased at Joann Fabrics)

Wreath:
Wrap Black duct tape completely around the Styrofoam wreath.
Then hot glue candy corns around the wreath.
Do this one row at a time, alternating the direction of the candy corn.
When finished use your black ribbon to make a bow and hang.
If you do not know how to make a bow simply look this up on you tube.
It is simple.

Tree:
Find branches outside.
Glue candy corn with hot glue gun in areas where the branches meet.
(ie. where the leaves would naturally grow)
When finished place branch into Styrofoam Block.
Place block and bottom of container.
Use the rest of the candy corn to fill the container covering up the foam block.
Display out of reach of husbands and dogs who like to eat Candy Corn!!!
