Halloween Crafts - Day 3 - Big Styrofoam Ghosts

This is another post inspired by Pinterest.  I made this one by myself as Callie was too interested playing in the cheesecloth to help me much.  She sure loves that magnifying glass!  I was planning to cover that with DSP like I saw on Pinterest but she never puts it down.

 

We used an 8" Styrofoam ball and punched out two eyes using the Large Oval punch and Basic Black cardstock.  They are stuck on the ghost using pop dots (retired).  Then I cut about 2 yards of cheesecloth and put over the top.  We screwed in the eye ring through the cheesecloth to keep it on there.  This will be hanging out front so I didn't want the cheesecloth to blow away.

 

 

Callie didn't quite understand what we were making at that point but she remarked that it was as tall as she was!

 

 

Supplies: 

8" Styrofoam ball (non-SU), Eye Ring (non-SU), Cheesecloth (non-SU), Large Oval Punch, Basic Black Cardstock, Pop Dots (retired)

 

I have to say that I put this outside of my craft room window (which faces the front of my house) and I keep looking up thinking someone is at the door.  It is a super easy and super cool decoration to have out front and I hope you make some of them too to hang inside or out.
