The Great Eyeball Pumpkin

Today, I will be showing you my Eyeball Pumpkin. The great people at Michael’s sent me some fall goodies which included one of their great craft pumpkins. Back in August, I got to meet Jo Pearson and her creative team and I was so inspired by them so I am always excited when they send me items that they too love to craft with.

I am in Halloween party mode right now so I knew I could create something for our Little Monsters Halloween Cupcakery party that we are actually having Halloween night. I am going for spooky but cute spooky. You know what I mean!

Step 1- I cut off the stem of the pumpkin which because these are craft pumpkins, this is very easy to do.

Step 2- I painted my pumpkin white.

Step 3- I then painted the top black to be the pupil.

Step 4- I freehanded another circle for the eye. I wanted blue but any color is cute!

Step 5- I bought skinny red grosgrain ribbon to be the spooky veins. But you could use red paint too. I just hot glued on the ribbon. And because Michael’s included a little bling(which I love) I added a sparkle to my eye. My dad always said I was the sparkle in his eye!!!

There you have it. A very easy spooky eye ball made from a pumpkin.

I hope you will come by and visit me, your CSI girl over at The CSI Project!

We are always having a crafty good time over there!

So eyeball spooky, So Creepy and So La-Dee-Da!
