Easy Halloween Craft Projects

Have you ever wanted to create a special homemade Halloween decoration but you just don't have the time or you aren't exactly sure how to get started? Well, now with a little help from PartyCheap.com and the creative minds at Country Living Magazine, you can make grinning jack-o-lanterns and spooky ghosts in just minutes. All you will need to get started with your Halloween project is a couple of our orange art-tissue balls and white art-tissue westminster bells.

To create a creepy Jack-o-Lantern Pumpkin Balls using our Orange Art-Tissue Ball, you just need some black and brown construction paper, a few glue dots, and a pair of scissors. Cut out a bunch of scary facial features from the the black paper, open the tissue ball, and secure mouths, noses, and eyes to the ball using the dots. Add a brown paper stem to the top of the ball for a finishing touch and you've instantly created Halloween pumpkin. Attach them to a banister like in the picture, place them next to the door for a spooky greeting, or hang them from the ceiling using the attached string.

If you prefer something a little more ghoulish, you may like creating a whole gathering of spooky little Halloween Tissue Ghosts. For this project you will need an assortment of our White Art-Tissue Westminster Bells. They are available in six sizes, from a 5 inch bell all the way up to a 24 inch bell. Next, cut out a collection of facial features from black construction paper, open the tissue bell, and glue the mouths and eyes to the tissue using glue dots. Finally, to finish off your ghoul, drape a piece of cheesecloth over each bell to give your ghosts that transparent look. You can display your ghosts in a grouping on the floor as pictured here, or cut a small opening in the top of the cheesecloth and use the attached strings to hang your ghosts from the ceiling or from a chandelier.
