Halloween Magnets

Tuesday Tutorial

So here is a Halloween craft that uses bottle caps.

What you'll need:

-Bottle caps

-Paint (craft paint or spray paint)

-Cardboard

-Magnets (I used 3/4 inches circle magnets found at the craft store)

-craft wire (optional)

-Something Green to use for the stem (I used a piece of the kid craft foam shapes)

-Pencil

-Black fine-tip Permanet Marker

-Craft Glue

How to:

-The first thing you need to do is paint the bottle caps.

-After they dried. I sketched some different pumpkin faces on a piece of paper to get an idea of what I wanted it to look like.

-Then I used my pencil to lightly draw the face on the bottle cap.

-Next I traced over my pencil lines and filled in the face with the permanet marker.

-After that I cut a little piece of wire and twisted it around the tip of the pencil.

-Then I cut out my green stem (which can be any shape you want).

-I glued both of them to the under side of the cap.

-I then traced the magnet on to the cardboard and cut it out.

-Next comes glueing the carboard to the underside of the bottle cap. I did this to make the magnet level with the edge of the bottle cap.

-After that, glue the magnet on.

After it dries, you have some cute little magnets to add some spooky-ness to your fridge!
