This year for Halloween my brother and I threw together a number of props to host in our “Museum Of Supernatural Mystery,” and the Stay Puft Marshmallows were on display.
Though it didn’t turn out exactly right, the prop still got kids excited for as simple of a build that it was. I didn’t want the prop to be just a piece of paper inserted in a storage bag as I wanted it to be somewhat believable. The solution: I took a bag or marshmallows, cut open the back as to keep the ends sealed and took out all the delicious marshmallows, then painted on a couple of thin coats of white acrylic crafts paint. Once the paint was dry I taped the bag to a piece of cardstock paper and ran the whole thing through my inkjet printer. Screen printing a printable white surface would have been a better choice than acrylic paint, but paint was more cost effective (like a dollar cost effective).
