Halloween Ghost Milk Jug: www.celebrations.com
Supplies:
- Empty milk jugs
- Sharpie marker
- pencil
- Knife or X-acto knife
- Rocks
- Mini lights
Directions:
- Clean out your empty milk jug.
- Draw out your Halloween face using a pencil and then complete the face with a permanent sharpie marker.
- on the opposite side of the face, cut a 3 sided opening flap just about 2 inches wide and 2 inches tall.
- Place a few rocks in the bottom of your milk jugs to weigh them down. They are so light that if you place them outdoors you don’t want them to blow away.
- In the same opening, add part of the string of lights in it. Then lead the lights to the next opening. I added about 5 to 7 lights in each jug.
