Thread: Halloween Ideas

Tweet

Hi, I'm looking for some new idea's for Halloween crafts. anyone have any good ones?

Simple stuff like light bulb ghosts, popsicle skellies and easy sewing projects? Things that kids could do too?

This would make a great forum section. Maybe our awesome forum Master would consider it, or make it part of the props section with it's own prefix.

These would definitely belong there

Haunted Paper Toys

I've made tons of the 6" coffins.

NOPE!





Heheheheh!
I lie!

Hey, go pick up a roll of weedstop cloth from Big Lots (4 bucks and change for 50 yards) and play around with it. Bet you can come up with some cool stuff!

Get a big bag of Dum Dum pops (very inexpensive), some white tissues, ribbon and a magic marker. Tie the tissue around a Dum Dum with the ribbon and make eyes and a mouth on your tasty ghost. They make great give-aways for the TOT's, too.

I would check out Martha Stewards web site, she always has great craft ideas!!

Well, I found that my local Michaels is starting to put out there Fall/Halloween stuff on Friday, June 20th (thats today! Yay! I know what I'm doing after work!). So if you really want some good inspiration go walk through there aisle of halloween craft goodies. I always seem to walk out with a few more projects to tackle then when I walked in.

I'm not sure what kind of projects you are looking for, but you could always check the online craft stores. I know that Michaels.com has a ton of craft ideas; there are 383 Halloween projects currently listed on the web page (see link here). Most of these are pretty cutesy, but if that is what you are into, then it should be a great resource.

If that isn't what you are looking for, then just google "Halloween crafts" and you'll end up with more ideas than you could ever possibly need (or want).

Scan the HF "How to" section. Most might be a little more project-like rather than crafts, but some ... like the skel hands ... lean in the craft direction IMO.

Good Luck.
