A Boo Craft
Time on my hands and a desire to craft and make decorations for Halloween had me whip up a ghost.
First up is another dollar store craft. It started with a small plastic gourd.
Paint the gourd white
and apply your face.
I used a sharpie but any marker should work as long as you wait for the paint to dry.
I thought he needed some flair so I tore up some toilet paper and glued it around the bottom of him. I tried a coffee filter first which didn't look that bad uncut it gave the appearance of a ballet dancer. Tissue paper or hek if you paint your ghost grey, newspapers would look neat.
I have thought of many possibilities for him. He could have holes drilled in him and make a neat banner, float them off your overhead lights over your table or you could even hang him outside cautiously.
This is a neat and fast way to make a unique ghost. Another dollar store craft to save some money and decorate for Halloween.
Boo.
Very creative. I wish I had that skill
