I hate washing the car, but I love car wash mitts.  There's just something super fun about their nubby, fuzzy, crazily-spiked surface that makes me giddy.  (Okay, so maybe I'm a bit of a freak.)  So what can you do with them besides give your vehicle a bath?  Over at Two Girls Being Crafty, Tristin used one to make a super-simple Jack-o-lantern puppet for Halloween!  Grab a few mitts and let the kids design their own silly faces!  [how to make a Jack-o-lantern puppet]

Project estimate:

  • Car wash mitt, $1
  • Sharpie, on hand

Total:  $1

    This would make the CUTEST hedgehog (or porcupine) puppet! The washy-thingies would be perfect little spikes! My (real) pet hedge hog would love a friend. Okay maybe not…. but a great idea for little ones:)
