🤩🥤DIY: 20 GALLON STARBUCKS LATTE HACK for 12 FT SKELLY💀💚 

Do you or one of your neighbors have one of these 12 foot skeletons? I don’t know why, but I get the biggest kick out these guys ☠️😂 Since I blew my budget on Skelly (although I bought him on sale at the beginning of summer, he was still an investment) I had to come up with a budget friendly way to make him special 😉 Since coffee is better with friends, I’m sharing my step-by-step process so your Skelly can have a have one, too 👯‍♀️

When I asked the Starbucks barista if I could order a 20 gallon pumpkin spice latte for my skelly, the closest thing they had was the Trenta size. So, I had to make my own!

 

My first stop was the hardware store, where I picked up a 20 gallon trash can to ask as the latte base. Next I took a piece of cardboard to seal off the top. I used gorilla tape to make sure it was extra sturdy. Next, I picked up a latte-colored spray paint and applied to coats.

I also found a green pool noodle that acted as the straw and had Scooter cut out the hole.

Here comes the fun part! Grab 3 cans of foam spray paint and start spraying to make that whipped cream.

To make the latte look as authentic as possible, I ordered Starbucks drink order templates from Etsy and had them printed out at staples. I stuck it on with spray glue and used clear quick dry Shellac for protection.  along with the Starbucks logo printed on vinyl to make it extra durable. I also had the Starbucks logo printed on vinyl to make it extra durable.

The final step was a latte work (sorry, I had to!), but it was worth it. All I had to do was zip tie the latte at Skelly’s hip, and it was good to go! What drink would you make for Skelly? Comment and LMK! 🥰
