Making things festive has a way of drawing you into life’s little moments. You can’t help but think about the season you’re celebrating; where you were the previous year, where you are now, or where you’re hoping to be!

I’m not sure this is the craft for seasonal reflection honestly - it’s pretty quick! But hopefully it brings you some joy in it’s simplicity!

Ready?


1) Cut a rectangle mouth from your cardboard. Size depends on the space you’re decorating, mine was about 12” by 6”.

3) Wrap the cardboard mouth in a black garbage bag, and tape it securely. I used a garbage bag to wrap the cardboard so it wouldn’t just wilt in Florida’s humidity. If you are planning on using this face indoors, or if you live in a state that actually has fall, you might be able to get away with using black cardstock!

4) Using your command stickies, paste the mouth and eyes to your door - and Hooray! You’ve got a super simple, super cute monster face to greet your little neighborhood tricksters!
