Ingredients
- Mason Jar available at Dollar Tree
- Dollar Tree mop head choose the all-white type
- Hot Glue Gun and glue sticks
- Faux leather or felt Dollar Tree
- Dollar Tree Witch Hat pick usually found in the floral section
- Scissors
- puck light or battery-operated light strand optional
Instructions
- Begin by cutting a hole in the bottom of the witch hat pick using your scissors. This step is quite easy to accomplish, thanks to the lightweight materials.
- Take the faux leather piece and fold it in half. The piece should measure approximately 1.5 inches by 1.5 inches. Using your scissors, cut an oval shape from the folded faux leather. Trim it as needed to achieve the desired eye size.
- Turn the mop head upside down, with the flat bottom facing upwards. If you want the ghost to be securely attached, use hot glue to adhere the mop head to the mason jar lid.
- Apply hot glue to the bottom of the hat pick and press it firmly onto the mop head. If there's a bow on the hat pick, you can remove it and then hot glue it to the top of the hat, trimming the ends to your liking.
- Lastly, add hot glue to the backside of the faux leather eye pieces and press them firmly onto the front of the mop head.
- And there you have it – your Dollar Tree Ghost Mop is ready to haunt your Halloween decor! It's a simple, yet highly effective project that can be completed in no time.
