These creepy-cute eyeballs can be used in a variety of ways. Hang them around your home, incorporate them into a Halloween wreath, or use them as part of a larger spooky display. The possibilities are endless, making this craft a versatile addition to your Halloween festivities.

Craft Supplies:

Before you start, gather all the materials you’ll need. Here’s a handy list to get you started:

  • Mini Popsicle Sticks
  • School Glue
  • White Craft Paint
  • Foam Paint Brush
  • Paper Plate
  • Loose White Craft Glitter
  • Red Elmer’s Glitter Glue
  • Colored Cardstock Paper
  • Paper Craft Scissors
  • Large Craft Buttons

Having everything ready beforehand will make the crafting process smoother and more enjoyable. It’s also a good idea to lay down some newspaper or a crafting mat to protect your work surface. Once you have all your materials, you’re ready to get crafting!

Directions:

  • First things first – making the popsicle stick base for your eyeball. Go ahead and glue your EIGHT mini popsicle sticks together like a fence. You will lay six next to each other and two across.
  • Allow your craft sticks to dry completely.
  • Repeat for each eyeball you want to make today.
  • When they are dry enough – grab your white craft paint, paper plate and paint brush.
  • Squirt some craft paint on the paper plate and paint your popsicle stick shape completely white.
  • While the paint is still wet, sprinkle some white craft glitter on top for extra sparkle.
  • Shake off excess glitter into the trash can.
  • Now take your red glitter glue and draw some small squiggles on top of the painted popsicle stick shape.
  • Next grab your cardstock paper and scissors.
  • Cut out a small circle for the “pupil” of the eye.
  • Lay the circle cut out you just made, on top of the red glitter glue.
  • Finally – take your large craft button and put it in the center of the craft to complete the eye.
  • Set it all aside to let it dry completely before displaying it proudly.
  • If desired – hot glue magnets or string to the back for displaying.
  • Don’t forget to snap a few pictures to share with us! We can’t wait to see your popsicle stick eyeballs! #gluedtomycrafts

Your finished popsicle stick eyeball craft can be a standalone decoration or part of a larger Halloween setup. Consider pairing them with other DIY projects like painted pumpkins, spooky lanterns, or eerie garlands. The cohesive look will make your home feel fully decked out for the holiday!

Craft Activity Safety Guidelines:

Always Ensure Adult Supervision - Young children should be supervised at all times when engaging in craft activities. This is essential to keep them safe and ensure materials are used correctly. Use Age-Appropriate Supplies - Choose craft supplies that are suitable for your child’s age. Check labels for recommendations and avoid items with small parts or sharp edges for younger children. Modify as Needed - Feel free to adapt materials or steps to meet your child's abilities and safety needs. For example, substitute scissors with safety scissors if necessary. Keep an Eye on Allergies - Be mindful of potential allergens in craft materials like glue, paint, or certain fabrics. Opt for non-toxic and hypoallergenic options whenever possible. Organize and Secure Supplies - Keep all craft tools and materials organized. Store sharp objects, small parts, and potentially hazardous items out of reach when not in use. Following these guidelines will ensure that crafts remain fun, creative, and, most importantly, safe for everyone involved!
