DIY Monster Tree Eyes
With just a few dollars and a few supplies, I turned a “Cousin It” looking bush/tree in my front yard into a Halloween MONSTER! Let me explain how you can DIY your own Monster Tree Eyes to spookifiy (or add hilarity) to your yard for Halloween!
DIY Monster Tree Eyes Supplies:
2 Foam Bouncy Balls (I got mine at Dollar Tree)
White Craft Paint
Green Glitter Craft Paint
Glow in The Dark Mod Podge
Foam Brush
BBQ Skewer (Metal or Bamboo)
Step 1:
Paint the front half of each ball with the white craft paint and allow to dry. After 15 minutes, add another coat and allow to dry completely.
Step 2:
Paint Cat Eye shapes on each ball with the green craft paint and allow to dry 15 minutes before adding the second coat.
Step 3:
Add a layer of the Glow in the Dark Mod Podge to cover the painted areas. Allow to dry 30 minutes in between each coat. I added 4 coats.
Step 4:
Push a skewer through the center of each ball and then place in the branches of a bush or tree and cover the skewer with leaves so they are hidden.
Step 5:
Light a black light on Halloween to really get them to glow!
