Description
I was channeling my inner Dexter when I was making this wreath and it was actually quite fun!!! Messy....but fun.
<br />
<br />I started out with a standard 14" styrofoam wreath form that I painted black...just because I thought that it would look better and give a little contrast.
<br />I then added about 140 white ping pong balls to the wreath. At first, my plan was to make just a standard white eyeball wreath but figured it would be creepier with a little blood splatter. So, I found my red acrylic paint and an old brush and started splattering it all over the place. I think it was just enough without going overboard with the blood look.
<br />Next step was to add the googly eyes to each one of the ping pong balls. It wasn't difficult but time consuming and I did get a few burns from the hot glue. Well worth it.
<br />I added bugs to finish off this great piece.
