Spooky Paper Plate Eyes
Turn ordinary paper plates into super Spooky Paper Plate Eyes for Halloween with this fun craft! With a little paint, you can transform ordinary white paper plates into creepy eyeballs. These paper plate creations will be great as an afternoon craft, a craft at school, or as Halloween decorations around the house! You can also use this craft as a mini anatomy lesson for your kids. What is the pupil? What is the iris? Why do eyes look bloodshot when we are tired?
Materials
Directions
Start by choosing your paint colors. Use black for the iris and any color you wish for the pupil (except red). Use red paint for the blood vessels.
Paint a round black circle in the middle of the paper plate to make the pupil of the eye.
Paint the iris around the pupil by painting all the way around the bottom of the plate. Use the "line" at the bottom of the plate as a marker to end the painting of the iris.
Use red paint to add squiggly lines as the blood vessels around the edge of the plate.
Now go and hang your creepy eyes around the house and spook-out all your friends!
Supply hack: Don't want to use paint? Use magic markers instead!
