Paint the base of the skull drink dispenser with black chalkboard spray paint and let dry.

Fully cover the drink spout of the skull dispenser with plastic wrap and spray paint the skull with bright green spray paint. To make it easier, place the dispenser on top of a paper bowl or wide paper cup so the dispenser stays still. This way you can reach the entire surface without having to touch it. Lightly spray paint six plastic scary spiders so there is still a little bit of black still showing through.

Using a smaller brush from the paint brush set, go over the crack lines along the sides and back of the skull with the black paint. The cracks are indented so it makes this super easy to fill in.

Now you're ready to use your awesome Spookadelic skull drink dispenser! Place it on top of the medium-sized black cauldron. This will allow you to place cups under the spout while it's sitting on a table instead of having to place it on the edge of a table. Create a glow under the skull and wrap a glow necklace around the bottom of the skull. It will sit right on the base.
