Paint the back of the bowl of a white plastic
spoon an icky green color. Spray with a clear acrylic
sealer.
-
Place a lollipop in the bowl of the spoon.
Line up the lollipop stick with the spoon handle and scotch tape together.
-
Tear muslin into about 1/2" to 3/4"
strips, across the width of the fabric. Wrap fabric strips
around spoon in mummy fashion, leaving a small rectangular at back
of spoon for mummy "eyes". Keep wrapping entire
spoon until the desired body size is obtained. (About three
to four strips of 44" material are needed, depending on width
of strips.)
-
Leave the very tip loose so that it can be pulled
to open, but secure right next to end with a tiny dab of
glue. Pin until dry and then remove pin.
-
Use a Sharpie marker pen to put black dots for
eyes peeking out of the green opening.

Print poem
here. You can attach with a black
ribbon tied around neck and in a bow. Or thread ribbon through
a hole in poem tag and then safety pin to mummy.

p.s. I thought it would be cute to add a black bow
but my 6 year old grandson couldn't wait to open it. He thought
it was the coolest and unwrapping it was even cooler!
