“Well I saw the thing a comin’ out of the skyIt had a one long horn and one big eyeI commenced to shakin’ and I said oo-ooeeIt looks like a purple people eater to me!”I love this ridiculous song! It gets me every year. Flying Purple People Eaters is just one of those ear worms that works its way in each October! It’s a cute and catchy song that kids and adults can have fun with, laugh together, and have a goofy time!
So, I took the song a bit literally and made some One-Eyed, One-Horned Flying Purple Eater and their delicious little flying saucers!
I think I covered all my bases!
I decided to make this count as my Birthday Cake. I’m a Halloween Birthday Baby and I love my crazy cakes. And what makes it better are the cake pops! This project was so fun.
Wanna know who else has a Halloween Birthday AND loves to make cake pops as much as me?
