Add a touch of flowers on your Halloween Party Table!!!
Fall flowers have such bright color palettes. Find unusual ways to add floral arrangements to your entertaining. The arrangements don’t have to be large to make an impression!
 
You Will Need:  
          Halloween Eye Balls
          Halloween Picks
          Small Mixed Fall Blooms
          Fall Leaves
          #22 Wire
          Floral Wrap Tape
          Hot Glue Gun

This is a fun project, but tricky! I used a Dremel tool to cut a hole at the top of the eyeball. I also used a PVC coupling as a stand for the eyeball. For these eyeballs, I used a 1 ½” coupling.

​Before you cut a hole, create feet for the eyeball with hot glue. Determine where you want the pupil to rest. Carefully, place dots of hot glue on the bottom of the eyeball to create stability. Quickly, immerse the eyeball in water to cool the hot glue. Use a marker to mark where to place the opening for the flowers.
Place the eyeball in the PVC coupling with the mark at the top. Carefully, create a hole, only about ½”. Remember, the rotary tool moves very fast. 
To fix arrangement, I did a small grouping of blooms and secured them with floral wrap tape. Fill the eyeball with water. Cut the stems to fit in the eyeball. Remove the eyeball from the coupling. Place the arrangements on the table. You may need additional supports to keep the eyeballs from rolling. Some suggestions are matchsticks or small rolls. Use Fall Leaves or Spanish Moss on the table to camouflage these props. Enjoy!
