Bottled Mummy

Figured it's about time I jump on the Halloween craft bandwagon.  Also, I'm still working on re-using some of these plastic water bottles.  So, to make this fun, festive candy holder, you will need: cheesecloth, cotton balls, googly eyes, craft glue (elmer's would probably be fine if it's all you have), scissors, and an empty water bottle.

Start by cutting your bottle to the desired height.  I used a regular pair of scissors to cut mine, and it worked just fine.  Use your glue to attach two eyes and a cotton ball to the cut bottle.  The cotton ball will be your mummy's nose, so try to keep that in mind when you are gluing it on.

Next, cut your cheesecloth into strips that are about an inch wide.  Then, begin wrapping the cloth around the bottle.  I used dabs of glue to hold down the edges.

If you don't have cheesecloth, you could use gauze.  You're going for that bandaged effect anyway :)  Once your glue is dry, fill your mummy with any delicious Halloween treats you want!
