How to make my Halloween candy bowl with monster eyes
Step 1: Cut out monster eyes
Cut out monster eyes from Solar Yellow™ ASTROBRIGHTS® card stock paper and tape them to a pipe cleaner. Cut duplicate eyes and glue them to the backs to make reversible eyes if you like.
Step 2: Tape pipe cleaners to the bowl
Bend the pipe cleaners to create a small circle on the bottom end. Then tape the pipe cleaner circles to the bottom of a ceramic bowl to ensure it stays put for step 3.
Step 3: Fill with lots of candy!
You can make several haunted candy bowls with different types of candy if you like. You could even make different colored eyes for each candy bowl. My favorite monster-ish Halloween paper colors are Cosmic Orange™, Orbit Orange™, Outrageous Orchid™, Gravity Grape™, Terra Green™, and Gamma Green.™
