The cute Mummy Jar makes a unique place setting on a Halloween table or a fun craft to include at a Halloween party.

Materials

• clean glass jars (large or small baby food jars are perfect)
• green candy
• first aide gauze or strips of felt or white cotton fabric
• plastic wiggle eyes

• dark colored button
• glue dots
• scissors

Instructions

1. Fill the clean jar with green candy. Keep the lid in place, to prevent the candy from spilling while you make the mummy.

2. Use the glue dots to attach the wiggle eyes about one-third of the way down from the top of the jar. Attach the button nose with glue dots as well.

3. Begin to wrap the mummy with gauze by placing a glue dot or two, on the back and bottom of the jar. Secure the end of the gauze roll on the glue dots.

4. Gently begin to wrap the jar leaving the eyes and nose exposed.

5. Remove the jar lid and place the jar on a long strip of gauze. Bring up the ends of the gauze and position the strip to cover the jar opening. Secure this piece by tying a knot on the side of the jar, then wrap or tuck in the ends. You can also secure the candy by stuffing some white tissue paper or plastic wrap into the top of the jar and then tie one last strip of gauze.
