<\/a><\/p>\n It’s October 1st, which means bring on the Halloween posts! I’m not a blood and guts kind of girl, and I run in terror at horror movies, but I do love the cute, fun parts of Halloween. Dressing up, cute bats and pumpkins and monsters, that kind of thing – that’s my jam. <\/p>\n And that’s what this project is – it’s a simple glue resist with a Halloween twist. You really could draw anything, but given the time of year, a bat and a pumpkin seemed appropriate. <\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Start by using the Elmer’s glue to draw a design on the cardstock or paper plate. <\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n It’s best to draw thin lines, because this can take a while to dry. You want to wait until the glue is completely dry before you watercolor over it, otherwise you end up with an exciting glue mess. <\/p>\n And once it’s dry – just watercolor right over it. The glue dries clear, so the design stands out from the colors around it. <\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n If you did yours on paper plates, you can cut off the border to make cute little medallions. I used mine as door hangers<\/a> on the kids’ rooms. Gotta get them in that Halloween spirit!<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Lollypop Ghosts<\/a><\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Paper Pumpkin<\/a><\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\nMaterials<\/h2>\n
