Halloween Craft: Pom-Pom Pumpkin

Let’s make a cute jack-o’-lantern using a plastic bag for umbrellas to keep water drops off.

You’ll need an umbrella plastic bag, an appropriate amount of orange tissue (flower) paper, and eyes, mouth, etc.

made from colored construction paper.

Crumple the tissue paper and stuff it into the plastic bag.

Once filled, tie the opening twice, then stick on the eyes and mouth with double-sided tape.

Decorate the knot with a ribbon to finish.

It’s fun to bounce it like a ball.

Give it a try!

Monster mask

[Halloween Craft] Monster Mask — A Handmade Costume Using Paper Plates 👻🎃

Recommended when you want an easy costume! Here’s an idea for a photo-prop-style monster mask.

You’ll need paper plates, a wooden skewer (or chopstick), and paint.

First, cut a paper plate at about one-third.

On the larger piece, cut out holes for the eyes and nose, then paint it.

Cut the smaller piece to make the monster’s horns.

Attach the horns, then fix the wooden skewer to the back—and you’re done.

Add eyes on the forehead, draw patterns on the horns—decorate it however you like to create the monster you imagine.

Halloween art made with handprints

[Kindergartens and Nurseries] Halloween Art and Crafts Made with Handprints in October

Here’s a Halloween craft idea you can make using children’s handprints.

First, have the kids cut the base paper into a circle.

Next, paint orange on their palms and green on their middle fingers, then stamp onto the base.

Using pre-made parts—circles, triangles, stars, and hats—let them decorate the base however they like.

Finally, add jack-o’-lantern face pieces to the orange handprint and write “Halloween” in the empty space to finish.

It’s a wonderful idea that they can also enjoy taking home.

Wall decorations using handprints and footprints

[Halloween Crafts] Paper Plate Handprint Art Wall Decoration – Halloween DIY: Halloween Wall Decor / Handprint Artwork
Wall decorations using handprints and footprints

Let’s make a Halloween wall decoration with the kids’ cute handprints! You’ll need paper plates, ribbon, paint, scissors, and a hole punch.

First, use paint to make handprints on the paper plates.

Since the fingers will look like the ghost’s legs, place the hand with the fingers pointing downward.

Once you stick on the eyes and mouth pieces on the palm area, it’s done.

Punch a hole in the paper plate and thread a string through it to hang it as a wall decoration.

In addition to the eyes and mouth pieces, you can also freely stick stickers around the edge of the paper plate to make it even cuter!

paper cup ghost

[Halloween Craft!] Super easy paper cup ghost 👻 #craft #Halloween #handmadetoy
paper cup ghost

Kids love peekaboo and jack-in-the-box toys, don’t they? This little ghost is made using a paper cup, a plastic bag, and a straw.

First, cut off the handles of the plastic bag with scissors and tape the bag to the straw so that no air escapes.

Be sure to attach the bag to the bendable end of the straw.

You can draw whatever you like on the plastic bag, but the key is to make the drawing big and easy to see.

Make a single hole a little above the bottom of the cup, thread the straw through, and it’s done.

When you blow into the straw, your original ghost pops out from inside the paper cup.
