Spooktacular Halloween mask


This has been one of the easiest and fun-to-do tutorials so far. For this project I enlisted one of my daughters and a dear friend of mine to help out in the creative process; but you can also do this with some friends or even preschool kids. All you'll need is chalkboard paint (I use Martha Stewart Crafts Chalkboard paintchalk markers  and several paper mache masks (all materials available at +Jo-Ann Fabric and Craft Stores).

These paper mache masks come in natural cardboard color, perfect and ready for painting.  
First you'll need to paint the paper mache masks with the chalkboard paint. Make sure to make this step ahead so they'll have enough time to dry completely. I left mine outside during a hot day (about 3 hours).

After they are completely dry, you are ready to start an Spooktacular doodling party. Be as creative as you can and don't forget, the spookier the better!
