Crap is destined for the garbage
and therefore it is free.
When I use crap to make my crafts,
a-crapting I will be.
Today's crapting project is a Halloween inspired one. Our apartment desperately needs Halloween-y decorations. (We currently only have a pair of Day of the Dead candle holders) So, I whipped up a super easy Halloween garland out of an egg carton and string.
Materials:
- egg carton
- string
- craft paint
- paint brushes
- craft knife
- scissors
- newspaper/scrap paper/paper bag
- Sharpie marker
Directions:
1. I cut out all the little egg holders in my egg carton. (Is there a name for those things?)
2. I painted the little egg holders orange and green.
This is probably as close as I'll ever get to growing pumpkins |
3. Once my paint dried, I drew faces on my tiny pumpkins.
Doesn't this look like a school photo? Can you spot the naughty pumpkins in the back row? |
4. I cut two slits on the top of my pumpkins. Then I strung my pumpkins together.
Right now they're just smiling and dangling away above our table. Seeing their cute faces when I eat cereal in the morning makes me happy.
Happy crapting!
