Egyptian Death Masks

The boys made their very own custom fit Egyptian Death Masks. I used strips of material from Ethan's mummy costume from last year and dipped them into plaster of paris. They were very good and tried to hold still as the plaster set up just enough to get the masks off.

After they were dried for a day or two they painted them to look like their own faces. Ethan made his with one blue eye and one green eye, just like he has. Hunter tried to outline his eyes in black like in his other drawings, but it made the mask look like a raccoon.
