Plastic Bag Ghosts


My kids are really getting into Halloween this year and we don't have a lot of Halloween decorations. My 5 year old had the brilliant idea of looking through our recycle bin to find things to make decorations out of. We have tons of plastic grocery bags that we recycle so we decided to make ghosts out of them. Cute, huh?



How to for 1 ghost:
About 7 -10 plastic grocery bags
Black marker
Ribbon
Safety Pin
Yarn

Draw a ghost face on one grocery bag. Ball up the rest of them except for two and put them inside to form the head. Place the leftover two grocery bags in the back of the ghost, open side down, and tie the ribbon around all of the bags to form the neck. Cut all of the plastic bag loops to make it look raggedy. Put the safety pin in the top of the head and tie the yard into that to hang up.
