This post contains affiliate links.My two youngest kids have been obsessed with playing with my canned food lately. They will get into the cabinet and start stacking it up. Since I was sick of having to keep on cleaning it up, I decided to make them some cans that they could play with. Since my angry birds can game was such a hit with my kids, I knew that they would love some Halloween too. I think this would be a perfect game to play at a school Halloween party!
This is how I made them:
I took regular cans and spray painted them.
Then added vinyl for the faces of the pumpkin, ghost and Frankenstein. I cut the vinyl with my Silhouette. Here are the cut files.
For the monsters, I took pipe cleaners and made one long strand. Had I known that I was going to run out of the one color, I would have mixed up the colors more.
I glued the pipe cleaner and eye around the cans. 
For the mummies, I took some vinyl and put it on the cans and ball.
I ripped lots of white fabric
Then I glued the fabric onto the cans and ball. To make it look older, I used a brown stamp pad and inked the fabric.
I stacked up all of the cans and let my kids go at them!
It’s so easy and simple to make!
They had a blast! Plus, I can use these as decorations when they aren’t playing with them.
I used 3 different sized cans for these and it was fine. I also learned quickly that I can’t say “my cans” in front on my husband, men…..
I would love for you to follow along
