The Many Faces of Mr. Boo

Meet Mr. Boo, my newest Halloween Decoration.
I had all Mr. Boo's parts finished when my Grandson showed up the other day.
I thought I'd let him help me decide what face Mr. Boo should end up with. (he likes stuff like that) To him it was like a game of Mr. Potato Head. (actually... we all had fun with it)
The Many Faces of Mr. Boo...


Angry? Surprised? Confused? Happy? So many looks for one little ghost.


And... before you say it, yes, he does look a little like a Pac Man Ghost.
To Make your own Mr. Boo you'll need:


12 x 12 Smoothfoam Page Mount


2 Smoothfoam Ball


Hotwire Foam Cutter or Craft Knife


Black Buttons


White and Black Acrylic Paint


Paintbrushes


Craft Glue


Adhesive Letters


Black Cardstock (optional)


Directions:


1.Trace and cut a ghost shape on the Smoothfoam Sheet using the Hotwire Foam Cutter or a craft knife.


2.Cut the 2 ball in half to use for the eyeballs.


3.Paint the ghost shape and the eyeballs with white acrylic paint.


4.Mix the black and white paint together to create a light grey paint. Paint around the ghost shape to create a shadow.


5.Glue buttons on the top of the eyeballs.


6.Glue eyeballs onto ghost.


7.Paint eyebrows and mouth using black acrylic paint or cut pieces out of black cardstock and glue onto ghost.


8.I added magnet to the back of my ghost so it will stick to my metal front door.
