Halloween Fingers

By Craftbits
Materials:
  • Disposable Rubber Gloves
  • Plaster of Paris
  • Skin colored and red acrylic paints

Instructions:

This is a great party decoration for any Halloween or fright night. Purchase some plaster Paris or other casting plaster and follow the direction on the packet to make up enough plaster to fill the fingers of the gloves. To measure this fill the fingers in the glove with water and pour into a measuring cup. This is the amount of plaster mix you will require.

There is no need to prepare the gloves as we will just rip the glove off afterwards. Pour your plaster mix into the fingers of the glove and tie off with a rubber band to stop the mix running out then sit it down on a flat table to allow it to set.

Once the plaster has set, remove the glove and take out the fingers. Break off any mishaped pieces

You should have what looks like a broken off finger. using your paints paint the stumps of the fingers red like dripping blood and the other parts a natural skin color.

These freaky fingers can be added into bowls of sweets and chips, so that when kids place there hands in to get some food they grab hold of a freaky finger instead!
