Instructions

  • Using the Xacto knife, cut a small "x" over the logo of a ping pong ball (be careful—obviously that knife is sharp!). If your ping pong balls don't have a logo, cut your "x" anywhere but the seam. It's just easier to avoid the extra strong plastic at the seam. Learned from experience on that one.
    You can either draw/vinyl the jack o'lanterns faces before or after assembling the lights.
    If you want to use your Cricut or other electronic cutting machine, you can download the files (in the supply list) and apply the vinyl directly to each ping pong ball. You can change up which eyes go with which mouth, to make them all different.
  • Stick the first light on the string through the "x" that you made, making sure to push it in all the way.
    Repeat, repeat, repeat until you've cut and placed all the ping pong balls. It'll look something like this during the day:

  • And something like this at night!
    So fun and spooky!
