Lego Star Wars Party Preparation

I know I'm posting this out of order with the Disney trip, but I just had to get this out there.  Jake's having a Lego Star Wars birthday party, complete with Jedi training (they will even fight Lego Darth Vader if my husband follows through on his promise).  One of the Jedi training activities will be marshmallow gun target practice.  As the target, I made this adorable Darth Maul lego head for Jake's birthday party.  His party isn't until September (I start early around these parts).

It was made with an Utz cheeseballs container from Sam's Club.  Mason was happy to eat most of the cheeseballs.  I looked at a picture of Lego Darth Maul and then drew it on the container with crayon.  When I was satisfied with the drawing, I painted it with acrylic paint from Hobby Lobby.  It took about 30 minutes to complete.  I'm pretty happy with it.

I have a few other works in process that I'll reveal after Jake's party.  I can't wait!
