EEEK! It’s a great big SPOOKY Spider. No wait, it’s just a popcorn box in disguise. This Halloween treat box is a creation that I made for the Halloween Movie Popcorn Box Party Hop.
There are more than 30 popcorn boxes in this blog hop party that have been transformed into creations for Halloween. Lots of them use buttons from Buttons Galore as each of the designers was provided with a little package of Halloween colored ones from Laura Kelly’s collection.
Materials used for Spooky Spider:
I painted this one with Plaid’s Folk Art paint (Multi Surface Licorice) and then embellished with wires for legs and Laura Kelly’s Black Beauty buttons for feet and eyes. To get the wire into the sides, I poked holes with a sharp screw in hook. To fill it up and make it yummy, I added a mixture of popcorn that I shook up in chocolate and black sugar. I also added in some chocolate covered cherry Jelly Bellies to make it a little more fun.
Check out the many other fabulous projects. Lots of them were done by our awesome Buttons Galore design team members and others by creative designers, artists, and bloggers.
Happy Popping Around,
Laura
Welcome to the Me and My Peeps Blog Hop!
Here is the Peep and here are the buttons that I used to put this together (along with a little hot glue from Adtech).
What kid do you know that wouldn’t benefit from having this trashy little can to use in his bathroom or bedroom or playroom or any room. It would even be great for the car! The trash can came from the Dollar Tree. Yes, it was only ONE DOLLAR! Add a Me and My Peeps decal (you can get the AC Moore or at PlaidOnline) and a few buttons to the top and wa-la, you have a great little storage container. I think it would be fun to store Barbie clothes, doll shoes, Legos, BUTTONS, Crayons, or even use for…GARBAGE!
This would be fun for party favors too! You could let the kids pick their peeps and fill them with party goodies!
