Is today Halloween?
What you will need:
- Scrapbook Paper
- Cardboard
- Mod Podge
- Sponge brush
- Rickrac
- String
- Glue gun and glue sticks
- Candy
Take a ruler and evenly mark spaces for your candy pieces. My board was about 12 inches (across) by 12 inches (down). I did 3 inches across by 1 1/2 inches down. According to your size of card board, mark your spots where you think is best.
Where you have marked, hot glued string. The string is how you will attach the candy. To cover up the strings I glued a strip of rickrac over the top.
Attach 30 pieces of candy.
On the thirty-first they get to take off a little blow horn to celebrate Halloween!! I hot glued a loop of rickrac across the back , so he could hang it in his room.
If you feel like 31 days is too long of a countdown for your little one, or October 1st has past, make your countdown 15 days out or even 10. Just have fun!
