• black paint
• black and white craft foam
• toothpicks
• wooden kabob skewers
• black duct tape
• glue
• scissors
• paint brush
• hole punch

Instructions:

1. Paint mini pumpkins black and allow to dry.
2. Cut out eyes from the white craft foam and use the hole punch to make pupils.
3. Glue the eyes on the pumpkins.
4. Cut ears from the black craft foam. Cut a tooth pick in half and using the black duct tape, attach the toothpick point down to the back of the ears. Stick the ears into the top of the pumpkin.
5. Cut wings from the black craft foam. Cut a wooden kabob skewer to size needed to support wings with about 2-inches left protruding from the bottom of the wing. Attach skewers to the back of the wings with the black duct tape and stick into the side of the pumpkin.

Place around the house or outside to put everyone in the Halloween spirit and enjoy!
