Fun Glow in the Dark Faces!

Intro: Fun Glow in the Dark Faces!

Make really cool glow in the dark faces with a 3D pen! These are really good to hang up for Halloween, hang from the ceiling, put on the end of a stick, or just about anything else! I decided to hot glue them to my basement stairs so I could see the step, and they look really good!

STEP 1: Draw Your Face

First, take out your fine-point pen and start to draw out a face. Draw one large eyeball that looks to one side (you only need one because you can copy it with your 3D pen twice), then draw a face. It can be smiling, angry, or any other emotion, but definitely be creative! I did mine with a few teeth in it like a jack-o-lantern on Halloween, but you don’t have to do that same thing. You can even draw another shape like a ghost to make things even more interesting.

STEP 2: Make Your Shapes

Next, place your 3D pen mat or masking tape over the paper. Start to outline your face or eyeball, then fill in the details like the pupil of the eye or the teeth. If you are drawing a ghost or a shape with detached shapes like eyes inside of it, use a different, light-colored filament to make a base to “glue” the detached shapes with more 3D pen filament (see picture of ghost for reference). Now you are all done! I glued my face to my basement stairs to make it even cooler, but you can do anything with yours! Enjoy!
