Meet Mr. Boo, my newest Halloween Decoration.
I had all Mr. Boo’s parts finished when my Grandson showed up the other day.
I thought I’d let him help me decide what face Mr. Boo should end up with.
(he likes stuff like that)
To him it was like a game of Mr. Potato Head. (actually… we all had fun with it)
Angry? Surprised? Confused? Happy?
So many looks for one little ghost.
And… before you say it, yes, he does look a little like a Pac Man Ghost.
To Make your own Mr. Boo you’ll need: (*affiliate link)

Directions:
- Trace and cut a ghost shape on the Smoothfoam Sheet using the Hot Wire Foam Cutter*

- Cut the 2″ ball in half to use for the eyeballs.
- Paint the ghost shape and the eyeballs with white acrylic paint.
