HaLlOwEeN GHoStiEs ...Quick and Easy Project!



The 100th Post has arrived ...a craft idea for you!





Project idea from Darice Inc & Sunshine Discount Crafts.



Turn used glass jars into these spooky Halloween candles for your party or Trick-or-Treat table.

Cut cheesecloth into strips approximately 1/2" to 1" wide.
Tack the beginning of the cheesecloth with hot glue at the top of the container.
Brush the back of your cheesecloth strips with Mod Podge or Glow-in-the-Dark Mod Podge. Wrap your container with cheesecloth strips until desired coverage is acheived. Make sure to leave open areas for eyes. Refer to photo.
You may use rubber bands to hold the cheesecloth in place as it dries.
When glue is dry, stick glow-in-the-dark wiggle eyes into the areas you left open.
For safety, use battery operated LED T-lights.

    Hi CIndy.

    Those ghosts are adorable! Congrats on your 100th post and I was thrilled to read that Sharon is cancer free! That is wonderful!

    I am so sorry about your niece. I lost my brother to a car accident when I was 16 and he was 18. A neighbor gave him booze and let him borrow the car - unbeknownst to my parents. I am glad it is taken much more seriously now!

    Thanks for stopping by!
