What
You Need:
Cool
Whip Lid or other similar sheer white lid

This project is easy and fun to do.
How To Make It:
Glue eyes and mouth on front of lid.
Cut off any writing or graphics, and handles from grocery sacks. Lay the sacks on a flat surface. With scissors, shred 2" strips up sacks leaving at least 1" area intact next to the seam.
Glue the pipe cleaner/chenille stem into the seam.
Turn lid over on flat surface. Bend and insert the pipe cleaner/seam into the ridge around the bottom 1/2 of the lid. Tape to secure in place.
Repeat with the 2nd sack and stem, and insert in the ridge around the upper 1/2 of the lid.
Punch a hole through top of the lid. Thread a length of yarn through the hole appropriate for hanging.
You may
like to have a loop on the end of a 1 1/2' length so you could hold on
and run with them.
