This is the finished project. It also says "boo" on the back as well, that way on your kitchen table you can see it from both directions.
Step 1:
Paint 4 terracotta pots or metal buckets and two long dowels (that is what you stick into the pot with the "boo" on it. I used black spray paint, and a helper is also optional (I am not sure if I recommend it!)
Step 2:
I cut out a 4x4 square from green card stock, then 3 3/4x3 3/4 black and glued them together, don't skimp on the glue, you need them to be really well fastened. Then I cut out white ghosts, I thought it was cute with them staggered, but you can do 4 ghosts, or just 1. I put "googly" eyes on them to make them cute. Also hot glue your ribbon around the middle of the pot.
Step 3:
Embellishing time. I used chip board for my "boo" but for those who have a cricket, you could use that, then I just added ribbon here and there to make it pop.
Step 4:
I used floral foam and Spanish moss to finish them off. Just put a little hot glue in the bottom of the pot, then put the stick in and shove moss around it cover, and make it look even cuter! Have fun!
