Sometimes you just need an easy-breezy Halloween craft to get you into the spirit. I know I can get a little overwhelmed this time of year. I want to make, cook and craft absolutely EVERYTHING I see on Facebook, Pinterest and Crafting A Green World. This recycled mummy jar helped ease me into the holiday because it’s simple, yet spooky-cute. Give it a try! What You Need
Clean jar Black paper Tape Scissors Googly eyes Gauze
Directions Now what?
You can fill this mummy jar with candy. If you use small jars, like baby food jars for example, these would make great party favors. Drop and LED votive inside to make a mummy lantern. Fill with flowers to create a Halloween vase.
When Halloween is over…
Unravel the gauze and put it away for another craft project. Do not put this gauze back into your first aid kit! If that’s where you swiped it from, replace it with fresh, clean gauze! Detach the googly eyes and add them back to your craft stash. Recycle the jar and the construction paper.
If you don’t have gauze…
Use an old t-shirt. Just rip it into strips. Remember that white streamer paper you saved from that summer party? That works perfectly for this project. In a pinch, use toilet paper!
