I need to stick half of a golf ball to my face for halloween. How can I do it?

I am going to an old time golfer/funny golfer and would like to stick a half of golf ball to my face somehow. Is there any kind of puddy or something along those lines? Any home remidies? Thanks!|||Spirit gum. Any theatrical shop or costume shop will have it.





Do you guys been invaded by those balls and things that you stick on to a persons car window so that it looks like the whatever (baseball, hockey puck, whatever) broke the window?





They have those here in any sports things you could want including golf balls. I found a site below which has golf balls.





So you pull off the plastic and use the spirit gum to stick it to your face.





Remember the blood...





But... aren't you a little late for Halloween?|||crack a golf ball in half then tape it to yur head by the back of the ball.....





or buy one that are made for that





PS isent halloween over?|||make one with papier mache|||It's kind of hard to cut a real golf ball (it's got a center of something like loads of rubber bands unless that's changed).





You might instead want to use something lighter weight anyway, like perhaps a ping pong ball, then paint or lightly stamp the "dimples" onto it with a gray color. You could just push in the ping pong ball from one side (may need to poke a needle hole first?), or you could possibly cut it with a fine-tooth saw, or you could use something hot to cut it (which would actually melt a cut through it). Or make a hemisphere from an air-dry clay of some kind (over a form like a ball/sphere), then remove and paint (if you use a clay, you could probably also make the dimples before the clay dries, as well as or instead of painting them).





There are definitely theatrical adhesives that will work.... and may even be some cheap Halloween facial putty stuff still available. Or you might try Victoria's Secret, or a sex shop? for the similar stuff used to keep parts of clothing in place so they won't reveal certain areas.








HTH,

I'd go to a shop and buy one of those LIGHT hollow toy golf-balls (Kids golf-kits)? You can saw it in half much more easily than a real golf ball. Plus, you'll get a dozen for the cost of ONE real golf ball.





Fill it with upholstery foam or expanding foam to give it some solidity. THEN, I would use "Moleskin" or Bunion/Corn pads from the drug-store. You can attach the fabric side to the foam with Elmer's or hot-glue, and then attach the "sticky" side to your face.





"Weather" or age the ball with some standard acrylic or enamel paints.





Good Luck
