I have been saving up my milk jugs for weeks! Finally I felt like I had enough to get this projected started!
I colored on some faces (some spooky some silly) with a permenant marker, cut some BOO letters out on the good ol’ Cricut, modge podged them on. Cut out a hole in the backs. Inserted Christmas lights and {Ta-Da!}, spooky/silly milk jugs ghosts.
So simple but lots of fun! My Two Year-Old and I are so excited to plug in the lights at night (the hubs is still a little wary, worried about it being some kind of fire hazard – psh! I kind of too, but you have to take risks when being crafty.) They add a little to spook to our regular old pumpkins on our porch!
{Inspiration found: Eighteen 25 Spirit Jugs}
Struttin’ my stuff at over at these fun places:
OMG! How cute are these!?
ReplyDeleteWay cute
ReplyDeleteI saw these in a neighbors yard last year and thought they were adorable. Thanks for sharing...I'd better get busy drinking more milk!
ReplyDeleteSo fun and a great kid craft.
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking with What little boys are made of.
What a cute idea. I saw this idea done around Christmas last year, but I really like the ghost take on them. Very cute! I hope you'll come link them up to my Halloween party this weekend! Have a great night.

LOVE all your faces!
ReplyDeleteFantastic upcycled project and so much more cost effective than altering craft pumpkins. I love the look of the milk jugs as ghosts and all the creative faces you drew. Thanks for sharing with us at A Crafty Soiree! Please join us next time too!
