Halloween is getting closer and we’re prepping the house for some spooky scares! These green blobs in a bottle will fit right in, as we craft up some scary Halloween decorations this year.
I found this creepy craft in the Halloween craft book called, Make Yourself a Monster by Kathy Ross. There’s tons of fun monsterish ideas, perfect for Halloween.
Supplies for Green Blobs:
- corn syrup
- empty clear bottle/jar – with or without a lid
- green food coloring
- crafting googly eyes
Pour corn syrup into your jar and add 2-3 drops of food coloring. Stir. Now add your googley eyes. These will float, unless you glue on a weight to the back of the eyes, or something heavy.
Now your Blob is ready for display. Keep these ghoulish eyes on hand, you may have a monster visit with only one eye that might need a spare!

Cute! We made these today and I snapped pics on my blog. Thank you for the idea!
Oh, my kids are going to go bananas for this!
We just watched Monsters vs. Aliens and this is so perfect for making BOB. Just switch the green to blue! I love it!
Lori – LOVE the idea of a blue Bob!! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you – a perfectly simple idea that I can actually do for the kids. It is perfect.
These are too cute. Kathy Ross is great. I’ve talked to her a few times over the years, she has some fabulous ideas for kids!
