Craft a Spooktacular Halloween Buffet
All of these items can be found at your local grocery store or at stores like the Dollar Tree
For the Pumpkin Centerpiece:
- Gather:
- Spider Confetti
- Foam Pumpkins
- Attach spiders with hot glue or E6000.
- Add name tags or Halloween die cuts with twine, if desired.
For the Cupcake Bouquet, you’ll need:
- Cupcake liners
- Sucker sticks
- Halloween pom poms
- Hot glue, & glue gun or regular adhesive
- Gather supplies.
- Lay one cupcake liner down flat. This will be your base. Take another line and fold in half, then fold in half again. Repeat until you have 4 “petals.”
- Hot glue the petals to the base. Layer more, if desired or add a pom pom or googly eye to the center.
- Attach the sucker stick to the back of the base and cover with another cupcake liner or felt eyeball. Repeat for each cupcake flower you want to create.
I wrapped some sparkly chenille stems around the sucker sticks.
