How to DIY plant eyeballs
This tutorial is so easy!
Step 1: Take a set of two ping pong balls and add a dob of glue to one. Press the other ball to it. Let cool.

Step 2: Take the skewer and put it in between the two balls and add a lot of hot glue to hold it into place. Make sure the stick doesn’t go up over the ping pong balls.

Step 3: Cut out circles out of the black adhesive vinyl. If you don’t have black vinyl, you could easily swap out for a sharpie or magic marker and draw circles directly onto the ping pong balls.
I like to cut out big and small circles to make the eyeballs have a little whimsy.

Step 4: Peel off the backing of the vinyl and place it on the ping pong balls. Some go up, some go down. Some might look cross-eyed! Have fun with it!

Some of these eyeballs remind me of cookie monster!

Be Creative: Take some black felt and create eyebrows or glue on some fake eyelashes!
Step 5: Place the skewers in your planter! You can trim them down if you need to. They are easy to snap off!

Step 6: Check out your cute new plants!

I know I put these up for Halloween, but I think they are more whimsical than scary!
Pair these with some DIY TENTACLES!
