How Tuesday:: Upcycled Flying Ghost

We wanted ghosts that we could hang on our front porch that will blow in the breeze. How fun and spooky, right? Eben and I had a super fun time making the 4 large ghosts that we have hanging on our front porch, and it only cost us $5. {We had everything to make these, except the white sheets which we paid $2.49 each for.}

Want to make ghosts with your little goblins?

Here is what you will need to make 4 ghosts::

* 2 Queen or King sized White Sheets or Bed Skirts.

{Eben and I couldn't find white sheets at our local thrift store, so we bought king sized bed skirts and cut off the outer fabric. We used the outer fabric to stuff the heads.}

* 4 hangers

* Wire or twine.

* Any type of plastic bag

What to do::

* Cut the sheets into 4 large pieces. {cut the edges so they are jagged}

* Stuff fabric scraps into a plastic bag and tie it around the top of a hanger.

* Hold the ghost by the neck.

{ Eben thought "choking" the ghost was fun and made gagging noises while he did it. This is when I wrapped wire (or you can use twine) around the neck.}

* Insert a piece of wire at the top of the head for hanging.

What do you think of my upcycled flying ghosts?

Enjoy.
