This Halloween eyeball wreath uses ping pong balls covered with googly eyes on a foam wreath form. You'll build up layers of balls for a full, dimensional look, then add wiggle eyes for a spooky effect. Finish with a ribbon hanger on the back.

You'll need

PING PONG BALLS (*see note below about amount needed)

WIGGLE GOOGLY EYES

10" FOAM WREATH

16" FOAM WREATH

HOT GLUE STICKS

BLACK RIBBON

Directions

Plug in your glue gun and let it heat up.

Pick a starting point on the wreath and attach ping pong balls with hot glue. Work your way around, placing them in a single layer. Keep the wreath flat on your work surface so the balls sit evenly and the wreath hangs flush against the wall or door.

After the first layer is complete, add more ping pong balls to fill gaps and create depth. Check the wreath from both the front and sides, since it may be viewed from different angles.

Once all ping pong balls are glued, attach googly eyes to any ball you choose. For extra dimension, squeeze some eyes onto lower-layer balls that are still visible.

Attach a piece of black ribbon to the back of the wreath using glue and a pin, creating a loop for hanging.
