Halloween Centerpiece

I wanted to come up the a centerpiece that was cute, cheap, and unique.  As my kids and I wondered Walmart, we went down the bean isle and I thought, "what if I make a centerpiece out of beans.  Well, that is just what I did!!

How to Make Centerpiece

Items you will need:

2 bags of white beans
1 bag of black beans
Yellow and red food color
Turn oven at 350

In a glass bowl mix yellow and red food color to make orange then add 1 bag of white beans.  Cover your cookie sheet in foil then spread out the orange beans.  I covered mine because I didn't know, well, number one if it was going to work and two is it going to stain my pan.  Sorry, I didn't take a picture.  Bake the beans for 10 - 15 minutes until dry.  Let cool.

Finally, fill a jar or vase of your choice!
