It's time for part 2 of the Halloween trilogy! Today we're are making some super cool, DIY decorations. All of these are really easy to make and cheap as well! So if you're a student or just on a budget and want to get super spooky this year, give these decorations a go.
Supplies:
Mummy Lanterns:
2 Glass jars
Stretchy bandages
Cellotape
Googly eyes
(PVA glue if your eyes aren't self adhesive)
2 Tea lights
Ghost:
Cheesecloth
Starch Spray
A ball or round object
A bottle or a body shaped object
Wire
Tape
Black card or coloured in black paper
Scissors
PVA Glue
Mummy Lantern Method:
Tape the end of the roll of bandages to the glass jar and wrap around until the jar is completely covered.
Secure the end of the bandage with some sticky tape.
Get your googly eyes and stick on to the jars.
Place a tea light in each jar and light them up.
Ghost Method:
Assemble your body frame by placing your round object ontop of your body object, you might have to secure them together to keep them in place.
Attach the wire and bend so that it makes two arm shapes either side.
Drape over the cheesecloth and adjust so that you have a general ghost shape.
Spray the cheesecloth with starch spray until slightly damp.
Leave for about 2 hours until completely dry.
Once dry, lift the cheesecloth off your frame and adjust so that it stand on its own.
Cut out two black ovals and stick onto the cheesecloth to give your ghost eyes.
Ta daaa! DIY Ghost and Mummy lanterns!
