Are you looking for a spooky yet not too scary Halloween decor project to make? These Halloween spooky eyeballs are a fun project for families to make together! Create fake eyeballs in a jar to decorate with this Halloween. These jars make a fun addition to a haunted house or a mad scientist themed party.
Spooky Eyeballs for Halloween Supplies:
- White 1.5″ Durafoam Balls
- Darice Permanent Fabric Markers
- Green Glass Mason Jar
- Darice Clear Storage Jar
- Darice Cheese Cloth
- Distress Spray Stain
- Mod Podge Sheers Tint
Step 1. To tint clear jars, pour a generous amount of Mod Podge Sheer colors into your container. Swirl the Mod Podge around, and let the excess drip out. Set the jar aside to dry completely. If you don’t want to tint your jars, just order one that has colored glass, like the green jar that I used.
Step 2. Next you will make the spooky eyeballs. Use the black fabric marker to draw a circle on the Styrofoam ball. Make a smaller circle inside the larger circle as pictured.
Step 3. Use various colors to fill-in the fake eyeballs. I used brown, blue, and green which are all found in the Darice fabric markers set.
Step 4. Use a red fabric marker to randomly draw in vein’s on the fake eyeballs.
Step 5. Place the cheese cloth in a cardboard box or in a sink. Spray the fabric generously with the vintage colored Distress spray stain. Let the fabric dry completely.
Step 6. Fill the jars with the fake eyeballs.
Step 7. Place the tinted cheese cloth over the jars, and tie a piece of ribbon around the mouth of the jar. Pull the cloth down tightly, then trim off the excess fabric.
The tinted color of the jars makes it look like the spooky eyeballs are floating in water! It’s creepy and humorous at the same time. Have fun crafting and creating Halloween decor!
