Ghost Suckers Pumpkin Centerpiece

You will need:
  • 25 or more suckers - no bigger than a tootsie pop
  • Box of white kleenex
  • Black yarn or thin ribbon
  • Small black marker
Leaving the suckers in their wrappers, drape 1 sheet of white kleenex over the head of each sucker and tie it off with yarn/ribbon and make a small bow. Let the rest of the kleenex draped over for the ghost effect. Make 2 dots with black marker for the eyes. Make sure you don't make a knot when tying off, for little hands can't get them undone as easily.

I purchased an inexpensive large basket and several yards (3) of halloween ribbon and hot glued the top rim of the basket and made the ribbon go accordian style along the top, added a raffia bow and a little halloween decoration (found a inexpensive cloth magnet) and hot glued it in the middle of the raffia bow, and presto - I had a great "hand out basket" for the front door.
