Halloween Eyeball Decoration!

Here's another spookily cute Halloween decoration!  Everything for this project can be purchased at the dollar store!  



All you need is 
A package of assorted googly eyes from the dollar store. (or more depending on how large you're making yours, mine fit on a 8.5x11 sheet of paper)
Twine/jute/ribbon/whatever suits your fancy for hanging the decoration
Paper/computer/printer
Cardboard
Scissors
Hot glue/hot glue gun

First print the shape you want.  I did the letter "P" for our last name.  You could do any shape, letter, anything you can think of!  Cut it out and glue it to your cardboard


Then cut that out!  



Then it is really just as simple as using your glue gun to glue the eyes on!  You don't want to use too much or too hot of glue or it will melt through some of the eyes.  I actually have a couple eyes that don't wobble because the glue melted through the back...

I also recommend gluing the big eyes on first, spreading them across the entire letter, then filling in with the little eyes.  Then you have big eyes over the whole thing, and don't run out.

When you have it covered, step back and make sure there's no drastic bare spots.  Little bare spots will be hidden by the black back and the busy-ness of the eyes!


Once the glue was dry/cool I flipped it over and glued my jute hanger to the back with a big glob of glue!


That's it!  I felt like mine needed something more so I added a cute little jute bow on the top corner to finish it off.  So easy, so simple!  Enjoy, and happy haunting!
