GhooOoooOooosts!

Need another last minute, fast and easy Halloween craft project? I don't remember where I discovered this craft idea or if it's something I conjured up.



Need:


-black construction paper
-white paint
-black paint
-brushes


Directions:

Make a fist. Paint your hand (pinkie side not thumb side) from tip of pinkie all the way down to your wrist.


Place your fist down on black construction paper then carefully raise your fist up and off the paper. Tip: practice a few times on scrap paper first. 


*Add eyes, nose, mouth with black and white paint. We used various sizes of brushes to paint the eyes, nose and mouth. Alternatively, a cotton swab works well as does a toothpick or the handle end of a paint brush.

Set aside to dry flatly (or else the paint will drip down).

*Note: we forgot to flip our ghost picture around 180ยบ and accidentally painted eyes, nose and mouth on the wrong end-giving our friendly ghosts a 50s' pompadour look. Reversing the photo shows the mistake:
