Time: 30 Minutes
Skill Level: Beginner
YOU WILL NEED:
- Kunin© Classic™ Felt Craft Cuts 9” by 12”– White, Orange, Black, Candy Pink
- Assorted Ribbons and Trims
- Straight Pins
- Black Marker
- Glue Gun and Glue Sticks
- Scissors
- Wrapped Candy
- HALLOWEEN CANDY POCKET PATTERNS
INSTRUCTIONS:
Download, print and then roughly cut out the HALLOWEEN CANDY POCKET PATTERNS with scissors.
HOW TO:
Attach the ghost patterns onto Kunin© Classic™ Felt White with straight pins. Attach the jack-o-lantern patterns onto Kunin© Classic™ Felt Orange with straight pins. Let the kiddos select their favorite colors of Kunin© Classic™ Felt for a custom project.
Cut out the ghost and jack-o-lantern patterns with scissors. The younger kiddos might need some help with the cutting. Dry fit the two halves to the full shapes.
Attach the bottom half of the ghost to the front, gluing just around the outside edges with a glue gun and glue sticks. Hot or Low Temp will work for this project. Glue the top half of the ghost to the front of the ghost, so that it overlaps the bottom. Leave the center seams open, like a pillow sham. Repeat with the right and then the left halves of the jack-o-lantern.
NOTE: You can also use liquid fabric glue for this project, but you will have to wait for it to dry.
To create the ghost cheeks, trim Kunin© Classic™ Felt Candy Pink into ¼” strips, then squares, and finally cut into circles with scissors. Attach with a glue gun and glue sticks.
Cut Kunin© Classic™ Felt Black into a ½” wide strip, then a rectangle, and finally trim into ovals to create the ghost eyes. Glue the eyes onto the ghost.
Draw a mouth from cheek to cheek with a permanent black marker. A water-based or washable marker will rub off of the felt.
Tie a ribbon into a bow and attach to the ghost using a glue gun and glue sticks. Trim the ends of the ribbon with a diagonal cut to prevent fraying.
Cut out jack-o-lantern facial features from Kunin© Classic™ Felt Black. Use the pattern sheet or create a custom face by drawing your own eyes, nose, and mouth.
Tie assorted green ribbons, trims, and twine into a knot. Attach to the top of the jack-o-lantern stem with a glue gun and glue sticks.
Flip the ghost and jack-o-lantern over and fill with wrapped Halloween candy. Chocolate kisses are the perfect size for these candy pockets and make great party favors.
