Picture this: you walk into the bathroom and find a tiny mummy patiently holding rolls of toilet paper like ancient treasure.

With its bandaged body, big cartoon eyes, and pumpkin bucket, it looks like a character straight out of a spooky children’s tale.

The best part is that you don’t need to spend much time or money, just a few supplies, and your bathroom gets a touch of festive fun.

Materials Needed

• 1 small plastic or ceramic mummy figurine (about 18-20 inches tall)
• White gauze or fabric strips (2-3 yards)
• Googly eyes (2-3 inches wide)
• Plastic pumpkin bucket (medium, 8-10 inches diameter)
• Hot glue gun + glue sticks
• Scissors
• Optional: Small bat or Halloween figurine for extra detail

Step-by-step Guide

Step 1: Take your figurine and wrap it with white gauze or fabric strips, leaving some gaps for that classic mummy effect.

Step 2: Glue large googly eyes near the top of the head so your mummy has a friendly, funny look.

Step 3: Place a pumpkin bucket in its hands and secure it with glue or ties so it stays in place.

Step 4: Add your toilet paper rolls inside the bucket, stacking 1-2 at a time.

Step 5: If you’d like, top it off with a little bat or spooky figure on its head for extra character.

Tips:

You should use LED tealight candles inside the pumpkin bucket for a glowing effect at night.
