Materials List

- knife
- planting dirt
- handful of moss
Instructions
-
Cut a hole in the top of the styrofoam skeleton in the shape of a square.
-
Use that piece (that you just removed) to fit into the bottom of the skeleton if there is an opening. You might need to cut it to adjust.
-
Fill the bottom with a handful of moss, make it come out of the eyes and nose.
-
Use duct tape to tape around the edges of the hole, so the styrofoam doesnt get too wet when watering the plants.
-
Add in the dirt and plants.
-
Sprinkle with water every few days and enjoy!
