Video: Halloween DIY: Man-Eating Plants!
Shirley Bovshow, Cristina Ferrare, and Mark Steines create "Man Eating Plants" for Halloween on the Home & Family show on the Hallmark channel.
The 7-foot-tall, "man-eating monster plant" is made using a tree branch foraged from the yard and leaves removed from a faux flower stem. The faux leaves are attached to floral wire and glued to the stem.
Gather these materials to make your "Man-Eating Monster Plants," designed by prop master, Dave Lowe.
1. Tree branch (as large as you want to make your plant)
2. Urn or plant container; drain holes are not important since you won't be watering!
3. Spray insulation foam
4. Spray paint - we used green
5.Glue gun and spray glue
6. Silk or faux leaves
7. Moss
8. Halloween decor materials for your display: bones, skeletons, spiders, small pumpkins and gourds.
Please visit Shirley Bovshow's EdenMakers Blog for detailed information, video, and behind the scenes photos!
Happy Halloween.
