Thrifted Jack O Lantern Candle Holder Paper Mache Round Box Scrapbook Paper Black Paint Faux Spiders & Bat Antique Wax Spanish Moss Halloween Stickers Witch Hat Ribbon Mod Dodge
First, I used the Paper Mache round box and painted the whole thing black.
Second, I measured and cut scrap book paper to cover the sides and top of the dried black round box and cover.
Third, I used Modge Podge to attach the cut scrap book paper pieces to the box and sanded off the excess. Then I used the antique was along the edges of the box.
Fourth, I painted the Jack O Lantern and let dry.
Fifth, I used the antique was on the dried Jack O Lantern to give it the aged look.
Sixth, I used hot glue to attach the moss and then the Jack O Lantern to the top of the box.
Seventh, I hot glued the spider to the moss on the top of the box, and then added the halloween sticker to the side.
Eighth, I took the witches hat and added the ribbon.
Finally, I attached the halloween pumpkin sticker and hot glued spider to the witches hat then, I set the the hat to the top of the Jack O Lantern. I didn’t glue it down so that I was able to access the candle.
