Fortnight Of A Thousand Faces

Feeling lonely? It's easy to make friends! Let Curly Wurly and Highlights Magazine show you how! Whether you want to make friends out of organic materials like walnuts; dehydrated apples; and eggs (or egg shells) or trash including old paper cups; burnt-out lightbulbs; kitchen utensils; and balloons, you can be the center of attention in your home in no time! Get started now, and you can have your house completely covered in staring eyes by Halloween! Click on images for craft directions.


Little Pecan-head Dolls | Paper Cup People


Apple-head Dolls | Light-bulb Creatures


Easter Eggs (make one that looks just like Spring Byington!) | Puppet


Crazy Faces (Karl Malden and Dr. Phil or Harpo and Groucho?) | Papier-mâché Wall Masks (didn't this guy fall off the wall in the Brady Bunch Goes To Hawaii episodes?)


A Mask (a perfect Lady Elaine Fairchild!) | Mr. Egghead With a Crewcut
