How to make a Spooky Garland

As October, and Halloween, grows closer by the day, I think that it is time for a Halloween Craft. This craft is super easy, and can be done with regular supplies.

Supplies & Materials:

  • 4 sheets of printer paper
  • String, yarn, or twine
  • Tape
  • Scissors
  • Marker ( I used a black Posca pen to get a sleek look)
  • Ruler, book, or straight-edge
  • Pen/Pencil

Step 1:

Fold one sheet of paper in half. Use a ruler, or straight-edge to make a triangle. Do this two more times.

Step 2:

Cut all six of those triangles out.

Step 3:

In your neatest handwriting, or spookiest, write the letters S-P-O-O-K-Y ( or another word if you prefer it). In the corners of each triangle, I drew cobwebs. You could draw spiders, pumpkins, or ghosts too.

Step 4:

Fold another piece of paper into eighths.

Step 4:

Draw the shape of a ghost.

Step 5:

Cut the ghost shape out. Now you will have eight ghost cut-outs.

Step 6:

Draw faces on the ghosts, and decorate as you desire.

Step 7:

Line up on a long piece of string. I chose the pattern ghost-triangle-ghost-triangle, etc. Then, tape onto the string.

Step 8:

Hang up as decoration, and make more!
