Craft: Halloween Yard Decorations

Halloween Yard Decorations

Cost: $0!

Time: 2+ hours total

Supplies

Old coconuts (or for other parts of the country you could use gourds)
acrylic/latex paint (we just used paint we had in the garage left over from another project...any color will do!, plus you'll need black paint for the faces)
sticks or PVC pipes (anything that will stand up in the ground. We got old bamboo from a neighbor's yard)
a drill

Instructions

Drill large hole in bottom of coconut (or gourd) and drain out any liquid.

Paint half the coconut/gourd with a base coat of any color paint. Let dry and then paint on the faces in black.

Put coconut/gourd on a stick and press firmly in your yard.

Make as many as you want! It's easy and fun and the neighbors love it!
