These little phantoms, sure to make everyone howl, are a wonderful craft project for a party or scout group activity. You only need a few basic materials and each child can have fun making endless facial expressions! If wiggle eyes are not appropriate for your age group, simply use punched paper holes or paint for the round shapes needed. It may take awhile for the glossy paint to dry, so plan ahead. Boo to you!
For each ghost magnet you will need
opaque white glass floral pebbles--round or star shaped (we found ours in the craft aisle at the dollar store)
water-based gloss enamel paint for glass and ceramic surfaces
strong button magnet
fine paint brush
small wiggle eyes, or punched paper holes*
tacky-type craft glue
Glue the wiggle eyes or punched paper holes in place as shown in the photo, for eyes. Allow to dry. With a fine paint brush, paint mouth. We painted an oval to look like our ghosts were howling. Allow to dry completely.
Glue magnet to the back of glass shape. Allow to dry before attaching to magnetic surface.
*You may also paint the eyes on the glass shape instead of using wiggle eyes or punched holes. Allow to dry thoroughly before proceeding...
