Ghosts - T-Shirt Ghost Craft

T-Shirt Ghosts - Fun Halloween Craft - How to make a Ghost.

Here are a variety of ghosts made from old T-Shirts

Some of the ghosts are made out of an entire children s  T-Shirt others are made of pieces of a T-Shirt.   I describe how they are made further down in this article.

I also have some other fun Halloween craft creations at this link








The little ghosts are made with a piece of an old T-Shirt.

The larger ghosts are made with an entire children s T-Shirt.  The head is sewn shut and then the shirt is flipped upside down and stuffed with newspaper.   If you will be putting the ghost outside, put the newspaper inside a plastic bag before putting it in the ghost - this will prevent the newspaper from getting wet if it rains.    Tie the top with a rubber band and then hang up with fishing line.

We reuse the ghosts - you can take out the newspaper and recycle it.   The ghost then fold up for easy storage.

Happy Halloween - How To Carve A Jack O Lantern

How To Carve Creative Jack O Lanterns - Includes a ZUCCHINI Jack O Lantern

You can make a Jack O Lantern from a pumpkin and you can also make a Jack O Lantern from a ZUCCHINI and other types of squash / fruit - more information further down on the page!

How To Carve A Pumpkin - How To Carve A Zucchini

it's very easy to carve a zucchini - and less messy than a pumpkin!

Caution - be careful not to cut yourself with the knife - safety first - more tips further down the page.




TIPS:

1. Use your imagination!
2. If you are going to put a candle inside a pumpkin, it is a good idea to put a vent hole in the top above the candle so the pumpkin won't burn.
3. If you want to put the top back on the pumpkin,  cut out the top at an angle so it won't fall back inside the pumpkin or other fruit.
4. For carving a zucchini, you can just cut off the top and bottom and take out the middle from the top or bottom of the zucchini using a long knife - This was a large zucchini - about 20 inches long.  We ate the middle part of the zucchini for dinner!
5. You can carve other types of squash / fruit - I want to try a water melon some time!

Happy Halloween!
