I've got my eye on you (insert evil laugh)...
Check out this beauty. It cost me all of $6 and was loads of fun for my little guy and myself to put together. Even I am surprised that I chose gory eyeballs - considering my laser eye surgery experience. I'll save you the long story. But let's just say taking a small dose of Valium 5 minutes prior to surgery is pretty much as effective as chugging a glass of apple juice - another words it didn't help. Although I did have a nice nap on the car ride home (I wasn't driving). All I remember is the doctor yelling at me to get back in the chair - apparently I tried to escape. Then the worst part: the torture devise they put on your eye to hold your lids back and open. Oh and to add to the horror, the surgery room is separated from the waiting room by get this - clear glass. So everyone waiting can see what goes on and could see me trying to jump ship. My hubby who was waiting and watching said there were some chuckles at my expense. I shutter just thinking about it. Okay, so back to the eyeball littered Halloween Wreath... I purchased the items at our lovely local dollar store. They have such great Halloween stuff.
First, I spray painted the 9" wreath black and then I simply hot glued all the embellishments to the painted wreath. Make sure to throw a fake roach in there for good measure. You know how I love those fake roaches.
Check out the great blogs I like to Linky Party with at my Blog Goodies Page.
