Directions
- On white craft foam, use pencil to draw out a circle, about 3” in diameter. Cut out with scissors. Use first circle as a template to trace second white circle. Cut out second circle. Repeat this process with black foam, making two circles about 1/2” in diameter. Tip: Trace a drinking glass to create two white circles.
- Stick a glue dot on back of black foam circle and stick onto larger white foam circle. Repeat with second black circle to make second eye. Tip: The position of the pupils is what gives the “mummy” personality, so place them where it looks best to you!
- Stick three to four glue spots to back of each eye and stick to galvanized tub, positioned together as a pair of eyes.
- Unwind cheesecloth from packaging and wrap around tub as many times as possible with two ends meeting at back of tub. Tighten the cheesecloth and tie two ends in a double knot in the back. Pull out cheesecloth to cover tub as much as possible. Strategically use additional glue spots to hold cheesecloth in place. Tip: Don't cover mummy's eyes so they remain visible.
