I couldn’t resist.
I swore I wouldn’t do it.
But I did.
I posted a Halloween project before October 1.
Eek.
BUT, I have been dying to make this wreath,
ever since I bought out the entire stock of eyeballs at Michaels this summer!
As soon as I saw these googly eyes I knew exactly what I was going to make!
Being the wreath addict that I am, what else could I possibly do?!
So fun. So spooky.
So googly.
‘eye’ see you….
Materials
1 grapevine wreath
1 can flat black spray paint (I used Krylon – I love their spray nozzle)
92 eyeballs
glue gun
- I bought my grapevine wreath from Michaels, and knew it was what I needed, but it wasn’t the right colour. My daughter said “Hey mom, you should spray paint it!” So I spray painted it black, and now it’s perfect. (what a smart cookie!)
- Then I randomly glued on the eyeballs.
Really so easy. And we LOVE how it turned out! It makes us laugh every time we look at it! ;)
Have a googly woogly day!

I know I already posted a comment but I wanted to come back and invite you to link this up to my Monster Mash Bash! http://afishwholikesflowers.blogspot.com/2011/10/lets-do-monster-mash.html
Hope to SEE you there!
great idea! the perfect amount of ‘creep’!
thanks so much for sharing!! xo ~ kristi
Ha! This is SO much fun! Great idea spray painting the wreath prior – I’ve always wondered what to do with the grapevine wreaths when covering them! The eyeballs are equally fun and creepy – perfect for Halloween! I’d love if you linked up to our Fall Wreath Craft Party this month!
How cool!
If I saw that at nighttime I would be scared out of my mind. Like eyeballs are so creepy. They just stare you down. It’s like stop looking at me!
Haha! This wreath still makes me laugh! :)

Wow! What a brilliant idea, so effective. Everyone will think this is awesome!
Hey just wanted to give you a quick heads up and let you know
a few of the images aren’t loading properly. I’m not sure why but I
think its a linking issue. I’ve tried it in two different internet browsers and both show the same outcome.
