Will it be a Trick or a Treat this Halloween?

Posted by Sarah Brunskill on

It's that time of the year again when things start to look a little spooky! Join us on our super simple Halloween Craft, great for adults and children as you can easy tailor to cater for all abilities.

Pumpkin Foam Eyes

See the bottom of this post for all the materials you will need to get involved!

A slightly less messy craft than your usual pumpkin carving, this Halloween craft has much less cleaning up afterwards, lots of fun and can really set you apart from your neighbouring pumpkins!

We used some pre cut Foam Shapes but you can used sheeted foam in a variety of colours and cut to your desired shape.

To begin with we mapped out our design using our foam shapes. With a pack of our Craft Dot Glue Dots we got to work sticking our 'eyeballs' together!

Craft Dot Glue Dots are the perfect option for crafts like this. A permanent sticky dot, these glue dots will bond to most materials. They made light work of this foam to foam application and had no problem sticking to our pumpkins.

With no drying times and an instant bond they're a great option when crafting with children, there's no movement once stuck and more importantly no messy glue to clear up later on!

For our smaller piece we moved onto our Super Small Dots, these are great for finer details where you don't want the adhesive to show. At just 3mm in diameter they're our smallest glue dot! We used these on the corners of the mouth where the foam was very narrow, again these will stick to most common surfaces with no issue.

You can play around with your design until you're happy with the final result. We're thinking of surrounding ours with some battery operated tea lights to create a spooky doorstep for any trick or treaters this Halloween.

Fancy having a go? Send us your Halloween crafts, pumpkins or otherwise and we'll send you a free crafty gift! You can tag us on social media or send a picture into us at info@allthingssticky.com!
