DIY Halloween: Bed Sheet Ghosts

Since we missed yesterday, we're posting twoHalloween Week DIYs today! The first one is these spooky bed sheet ghosts. You only need three things: a flat, white bed sheet, some balloons, and black ribbon, but when you tie these on to the trees outside and they sway in the wind, these ghosts come to life! The shape and weight of the balloon causes the "head" of the ghost to tilt downward, giving them a super eerie feel. Kids on your block with definitely be wary of your house with these hanging outside.



Supplies:
Twin flat bed sheet in white (we got ours for $6 at Walmart)

Balloons

Black ribbon

Scissors

Steps:
1. Iron out the creases of your sheet and lay it out.

2. Cut into quarters.

3. Blow up 4 balloons

4. Drape each piece of sheet over the balloon.

5. Secure with ribbon at the base of the balloon, leaving the ribbon long.

6. Hang up on your trees with the ribbon tail.

7. Watch as your ghosts spook the trick o' treaters on Friday!
