The following are a few fun crafts for making Halloween ghosts:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Glue Ghosts: <\/strong>These are a lot of fun and can be used to decorate windows and other surfaces. They are easy to make, really cute, and only require some glue and some patience.<\/p>\n<p><em>What you&#8217;ll need:<\/em><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>White school glue:\u00a0<\/strong>Most people think Elmer&#8217;s. This works, but you can buy an off brand as well.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Waxed paper:\u00a0<\/strong>You will want one sheet for each person who will be doing this craft.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Wiggle eyes:\u00a0<\/strong>You can get these in different sizes, but for faster craft, choose smaller eyes so you can make smaller ghosts.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Felt: <\/strong>You can get orange, black, green, etc. to cut out things to decorate your ghosts, such as a bow tie, hair bow, vest, etc.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Black buttons: <\/strong>These work great for the ghosts nose, or can be used to decorate down their front.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Small pom-poms: <\/strong>You want the really tiny ones as you will use these as buttons down the ghosts front, or to decorate the ghost.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Instructions for the Project:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Place a piece of waxed paper on a counter top or table. The surface needs to be flat, and the person making the ghost needs to be able to reach it.<\/li>\n<li>Squeeze glue from the bottle into the shape of a ghost. This may require some help from an adult. You will want to start at the head, and get larger as you work toward the bottom.<\/li>\n<li>Place wiggle eyes into the glue at the head to give your glue blob some character.<\/li>\n<li>Decorate your ghost further using the buttons as a nose, and the felt for ties, etc, and the pom poms as buttons down the ghosts front.<\/li>\n<li>Allow them to dry completely. White school glue takes a long time to dry, and even longer when it is used in large quantities. Give it at least 24 hours, possibly longer, to let it dry all of the way.<\/li>\n<li>Once it is dry all of the way you want to carefully peel the ghost from the wax paper and use to decorate the house, your windows, etc.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Halloween is the holiday for goblins, ghouls, and ghosts.
