Dave Lowe has a tutorial with a one eyed furry monster window display. Taking inspiration from Dave, I created a giant clown head and used two very inexpensive eyeball plastic molded masks on poster board. Dave uses a giant salad bowl, but the masks are so lighter and easier to work with. I painted each eye mask with black light paint to go with my theme. I cut the eyes out of the poster board, making sure the eye holes were slightly smaller than the masks. I then taped the eyes on the back of the poster board. (I taped them so I could use them again next year) I have a light shining on the back of the eyes and I also have a black light flood on the exterior. The clown face can be seen both day and night. The neighborhood kids love how his eyes follow them as they pass by! This project could easily be modified to fit any theme.
I found the masks online for about $3 each. Poster board at Hobby Lobby, with coupon was $3. The entire project costs less than $10.
