What you'll need:

How to make it:

1. An adult should cut holes big enough for the arms and head of the child. Remove the bottom of the box for the legs. (See photos 1, 2.)
2. Tape sides of box closed with masking tape. Cover any sharp edges with tape as well. (See photo.)
3. Print out multiple photos of popcorn and cut off any excess white border. Wrinkle the photos and glue or tape to top of box around head hole at the top of the box.  (See photos 1, 2.)
4. Wrap paper edges with duct tape. (See photo.)  Where tape overlaps armholes, cut darts and wrap tape through arm holes to inside of box. (See photo.)
5. Use red and white duct tape to create vertical stripes, starting at bottom of box and taping toward top.  Let tape extend about 5" beyond top edge of box and fold excess back onto itself.  Trim folded over tape into triangle. (See photo.)
6. Cut out a white oval and a slightly larger yellow oval.  Write "Hot Buttered Popcorn" on white oval.  Glue yellow oval to front of box first, then white oval. (See photo.)
7. Hot glue some popped popcorn to the top of the box. (See photo.)
8. Finish the look off by adding a yellow visor, red top, and brown pants.

Tips:

1. It's wise to pencil on the "Hot Buttered Popcorn" before writing it in pen. If you have the right software, a good alternative is to print the words and the oval out from your computer.
2. Not a lot of real popcorn is required for gluing on the box top. Cheese-flavored popcorn is yellower than other types and looks more like buttered popcorn.
