Mummy Milk Boxes

When I saw these mummy juice boxes on Pinterst, I knew that I had to make them.  Thus the idea of a Halloween party was born!  I’m not one to read the directions, so I just noticed that she recommended using electrical tape.  I used white duct tape and it worked great.  I also used milk boxes since we don’t often give Kate juice.

First, remove the straws!

Then cut 2 strips of duct tape and wrap them around the bottom of the milk box one on top of the other.  This makes a base layer that we’ll cover up with thinner strips later.

Then I taped on some Wilton candy eyes that were leftover from Kate’s birthday.

Now for the mummy wrapping.  Take a strip of duct tape, maybe 9 inches long, and cut two short slits in it.  Use them as guides to tear the duct tape into 3 strips.  Tearing it gives it a rougher edge than cutting it, at least on the torn sides.

Then just start wrapping the strips around the milk box taking care not to cover the eyes or the hole for the straw.

Here’s the first one that I did before I wised up and added the base strips and the eyes first.

I cut some smaller strips to go over the top and fill in the gaps.

And here’s the finished product!  I think they turned out super cute.  🙂
