Equipment

  • paint brush
  • Pair of scissors
  • glue my recommendation would be a strong craft glue that is tacky

Materials

  • 1 cupcake wrapper
  • bubble wrap
  • paper clip
  • string or yarn

Instructions

  • Cut one or two long strips of bubble wrap—long enough to hang down as tentacles and wide enough to attach inside the bottom edge of the cupcake wrapper
  • Paint the bubble wrap using a variety of fun, ocean-inspired colors. Set it aside to dry completely.
  • Once dry, cut the bubble wrap into long strips to create tentacles—leave the top edge uncut so it stays in one piece for easy gluing to the cupcake wrapper.
  • Push one tip of a paper clip through the center of the cupcake wrapper
  • So the paper doesn't tear, add a dab of glue to the paper clip on the top and bottom of the cupcake wrapper
  • Tie some string or yarn to the paper clip for hanging up
  • Glue the uncut portion of the bubble wrap
  • Glue the bubble wrap to the inside/center portion of the cupcake wrapper
  • Let the glue completely dry
