These party invitations are actually really cool and are simple to make. The nose, mouth and text are all printed onto bookmark sized squares on card stock. The eyes are glued on and so are the eyebrows and hair which is just ripped construction paper. You then cut the shapes out making the corners round. Great idea!
Use a tic tac container and design a label that says Jack-O-Lantern Seeds that will cover the tic tac label. These make great hand-outs, little gifts or party favors.
You first need white stockings with each leg cut. Here we used white glow sticks added to a water balloon before filling. You could use multiple colors or you can buy all green for a different effect. Tie the top of the nylon and hang from a tree. I would think this makes a great decoration for a night time party as well. Around the Fourth Of July you can find red, white and blue. Green would work for St. Patricks Day and multi-colored would work for a birthday. Sometimes you can find all of one color and these can be used for specific color themes.
Create a cutout from green paper that looks like the top of a pumpkin and attach high on a wall. Blow up orange balloons and attach with masking tape of push pins. Use this as a display for the party or on the outside of your home for trick or treat night. Older kids, with supervision, could use a push pin to pop balloons in turn until they are all popped. Could be done for different parties making a strawberry, heart, Christmas tree, wreath etc.
Paint with translucent colored paint and black paint for the facial features and jar lid. Seal with polyurethane.
