Glue the shapes to the plaque.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pumpkin: <\/strong>Paint the plaque with orange acrylic paint. Cut eyes, a nose, and mouth using black felt. Feel free to get creative with your pumpkin face! Glue the shapes to the plaque. You can also add a few lines with black marker to represent the grooves in a pumpkin.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Frankenstein: <\/strong>Paint the plaque with green acrylic paint. Cut out a section of black felt for the hair and eyebrows. Glue them to the plaque. Draw a nose, mouth, and stitches with a black marker. Then glue on the wiggly eyes!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ghost: <\/strong>Paint the plaque with white acrylic paint. You may need a double coat. Cut out circle shapes for the eyes and a mouth using black felt. Glue them to the plaque.<\/p>\n<p>Once you have all of your plaques decorated how you like them, you can attach them to a ribbon to make a hanging decoration! Use either a stapler or duct tape to attach the plaques.
