Hey Boo,
For today’s DIY, I will be showing you how to create some Halloween skull flowers using supplies from Dollar Tree. It’s a fun little decor idea for Halloween and I hope you like it as much as I do.
This craft is super EASY and uses a minimal of supplies. So hurry to your local Dollar Tree and grab them; you’ll have these flowers put together in no time flat. So without further delay, let’s get started.
Supply List
- orange sunflower bush from Dollar Tree
- package of DT skulls
- X-acto craft knife
- glue gun
- wire cutters
- And if you want to make a potted skull flower, add the following items
- package of DT bony hands
- small flower pots
- small piece of floral foam
- small amount of Spanish moss
To start this project, I separated all of the sunflowers using wire cutters.
Then, I cut the back of the skulls off with an X-acto craft knife. It was a little bit difficult, but I wanted to be careful so as not to cut myself. I disposed of the back part of the skull.
Using my glue gun, I attached the skull to the center of the flower. Easy-peasy!
Repeat this step seven times and you’ve got yourself a cute little flower bouquet! Ok, well, some of you may not call it cute, but, I think it makes a good little halloween bouquet.
Potted Skull Flowers
Of course, I could have stopped here and just put the skull flowers in a vase, but I had to get a little more creative with them. So I added some of them to small flower pots.
Two bony hand were glued onto the sides of a small pot. Then a small piece of floral foam was glued into the pot, along with some Spanish moss.
After cutting the flower stem down to size I placed it into the little pot. And look how simply spooky this turned out! It kinda gives off Seymour vibes from Little Shop of Horrors.
Before I knew it, I had created three little skull flower pots.
And I wanted to share a few more pictures of the the skull flower bouquets.
I hope you’re inspired to get creative and have some spooky fun making skull flowers this Halloween. They are definitely a CHEAP and EASY decor idea!
Until next time……. Happy Crafting!
