Last year, for Karsyn’s birthday, it was Monster theme.
I love everything about the whole “Monster” theme!
It’s all so cute and there are SO many ideas!
I wanted to incorporate googly eyes on everything I could, so I made this fun wreath!
And you wanna know what the best part of all his birthday decorations? I can use them for Halloween decor! SCORE!
What you’ll need:
-Googly eyes {I used about 1 pack from the Dollar Store – pack contained 125 eyes!!}
-Wreath form {I got mine from the Dollar Store.}
-Spray paint {I used white, but I would suggest black.}
-Coordinating ribbon
-Hot glue gun and glue sticks
First off, I spray painted the wreath form.
This was about 3 coats later. As you can see why I suggested to use black spray paint.. The white just wasn’t covering the green very well.
Then I just glued, and glued, and glued the eyes on.
One thing that I found very helpful, was to draw a glob of glue down and then stick on the eyes. But you have to do it quick because the glue dries fast and the plastic eyes will pop right off if it’s not hot.
Keep on gluing until it’s completely covered! But don’t worry about the inside or outside, just the top.
Next, I drew a line of glue along the outside and glued down a piece of ribbon. I chose to do three different ribbon, to incorporate many of his birthday colors.
Then I would wrap the ribbon on the glue, glue a line, wrap the ribbon, etc. until it was covered all the way around.
I did the same thing with the next two ribbons.
And I repeated those same steps to cover the inside.
And there you have it!
A fun Googly Eye Wreath!
