T.P. Pumpkin

Now, Let's make a fun Halloween decoration for the bathroom.  When the holiday is over you can rip it apart and use it.

 Supplies needed: TP, orange tissue paper, green tissue paper or crape paper, black duck tape, hot glue gun.

 Cut out pumpkin eyes, nose and mouth. You can get as creative as you want with this. 

 Center the TP on the orange tissue paper and then tuck it in the center.

 Should look like this.

 Glue some green paper in the center for the stem.  Stick on the duck tape facial pieces.

Walla.........I LOve it.

Patriotic Napkin Holder

 

Supplies Needed:

• Three Styrofoam stars ( I bought mine at Michael's) You may be able to buy in red white and blue. That would save a lot of the work.
• 6" x 5" piece of 7/16" thick Styrofoam
• White glue
• Craft knife
• Very fine glitter
• 6" x 2" piece of blue felt
• Acrylic paint red, white and blue

Now it' time to assemble the napkin holder !! 

1. Cut the Styrofoam into two pieces; one 6" x 2" and the other 6" x 3"
2. Paint both Styrofoam rectangles with the blue paint.  Paint all the sides of the larger piece but leave one of the 6" x 2" sides unpainted on the smaller piece.  Let dry completely.
3. Paint one star red, one white and one blue.  While the paint is still wet sprinkle one of the flat sides of each star with the Glamour Dust.  Let dry completely
4. Glue the felt to the unpainted side of the smaller rectangle using white glue.
5. Lay this rectangle on your work surface felt side down.  Stand the larger rectangle up so that it buts up against the smaller rectangle as pictured and glue in place with the hot glue gun.
6. Stack the stars into a pyramid and hot glue them together.  Be sure that the glittery side of each star is on the same side. 
7. Using hot glue, attach the stacked stars to the bottom piece of Styrofoam so the glitter side is facing out.

Now all you have to do is add the napkins and your 4th of July Napkin holder is ready for your BBQ table.
