Owls in the night...oh what a fright.

These black and orange paper owls are hiding in their trees silently watching you. Mwhahahahahaha...oops...whooooo whooooo! 


They are made with two pieces of cardstock paper wrapped and glued around cylindrical vases.  

 

In the front, a black piece (with a cut out oval) wraps over the orange piece (with the owl) in the back.  Trim the orange piece around the hole before gluing. 


The front black piece isn't big enough to wrap around the whole vase so the back is orange...you can cover it with another piece of black paper...but it's the back. 


A rubber band will help hold everything together around the vase while it dries.


Add a couple of cut out branches to the tree trunks.
Throw in a couple of tea lights and watch them glow.


Whachu lookin' at??
