Alien Abduction Nite Lite

With Shaun the Sheep

(Picture with the lights off and spaceship light on) My inspiration for this project was Heather of Dollar Store Crafts creation: except I made mine is a nite lite with a mini touch light from the Dollar Tree, made Shaun The Sheep to be abducted by aliens and my space ship is removeable and can "fly" off on its own (picked up by the string). While Shaun the Sheep is larger than the ship and it doesn't seem like it would be possible for the UFO to abduct him, keep in mind it is alien advanced technology at work here. The components for this are: UFO made from Dollar Store items (be sure to save the plastic covering off of the mini-touch light as it will be glued to the top of the glass) Shaun The Sheep - here is a link to the how-to that I posted at Cut Out and Keep or you could use a small plastic animal or a small action figure.
