Halloween Week: Bubbly Button Cauldron

I adore Halloween, it’s one of my favorite holidays! I also love creating new craft projects this time of year and making things to “spookify” our home. I was inspired to make this craft after seeing an invitation in a magazine. I wanted a larger scale version and decided to make my bubbly cauldron into a wall hanging.

Today I’m going to show you how to make your own Bubbly Button Cauldron for Halloween for only a few dollars and in less than 30 minutes.

First, you’ll need to decide on your color scheme and pick out buttons and scrapbook paper to match. I went with lime green, yellow and purple.

Next, I used my Cricut to cut out a cauldron shape, but if you don’t have a cutter you could find an image online and enlarge it to the size you want and cut and trace on black paper. I cut my scrapbook paper to fit in my 11×14 picture frame and attached the cauldron to the center.

Now, it’s time to create your bubbly brew. I placed the buttons and arranged them how I wanted them. Then I used adhesive dots to adhere them. Once I had them placed I pulled cotton balls apart and stuck bits of fluffy cotton in between the buttons.

For fun I added a tag that said “Something’s brewing…” but you could leave it as is or put a different saying.

All done, I told you it was quick and easy! Now you’ve got a fun and festive bubbly cauldron to display for Halloween.
