DIY BLACK CAT FAIRY LIGHTS

What you will need:

How to:

First, get your black cardboard and draw several cat heads all over it. (To get them all the same size you may cut one first and place it over the cardboard, then trace it).
Cut all of the cat heads with your scissors.
Measure the distance between two fairy lights and mark on your cat heads using the same distance.
Cut the little holes that you had measured out on your cat heads with scissors or a hole puncher.
Finally, insert the fairy lights inside the cat´s “eyes” and hang them up on your wall.

What you will need:

First design (polka dots)

Cover the pumpkin stem or “handle” with duct tape.
Paint or spray paint the whole pumpkin white and let it dry.
Draw little dots all over the pumpkin (with a pencil) after the paint has dried down and then paint gold the dots you had already outlined with your paint brush or circle craft sponge.
Remove the tape from the pumpkin stem and paint it gold.
Finally, let it dry and place it wherever you would like it to be around your house.

Second design (striped pumpkin)

To begin, cover the pumpkin handle with duct tape.
Cover the whole pumpkin in white paint with a brush or spray paint (spray paint is easier)
Once it has dried down place rows of duct tape vertically on the pumpkin leaving about one inch and a half in between them.
Afterward, remove the duct tape from the pumpkin’s handle and paint (or spray paint) the pumpkin black, and don’t forget to also paint the handle.
Finally, when it is already dry, remove the duct tape and paste some flowers on the top to make it prettier.

Third design (studded pumpkin)

Paint the whole pumpkin black.
Then, pick out some studs and paste them one by one with a lot of patience on vertical rows with about three inches in between.
Finally, let the glue dry down and place it where you want it to go.
