halloween Halloween is a time of ghouls ghosts and spooky goings-on Get into the spirit of things by getting crafty and making lots of frightfully good things Work your way through all the great projects in this book creating monster crafts to use as decorations hangings and displays Each project in this book is easy to follow and can be made in about 10 minutes Every craft can be done lots of times in different ways using different materials so there are plenty of ideas to keep you crafting for longer too There is a small list of materials you will need for each project but don’t feel like you need to stick to this exactly Try swapping some things that are listed with other materials that you already have at home Instead of using lots of felt to make the finger puppet on pages 6 7 you could use pieces of scrap fabric to make the body Or you could use flattened cardboard boxes or cereal packets to make the torch projection on pages 20 21 So before you start shopping for lots of new art supplies have a look at home and see what can be reused or recycled Pumpkin pages 10 11 4
Crafting can be messy especially if you are using glitter or glue so make sure you cover all your work surfaces with old newspaper or a plastic tablecloth before you begin Always wash your hands after you have used glue to keep your works of art from being ruined by sticky fingers and always ask an adult to help you with scissors or sharp compasses Cat lantern pages 22 23 Zombie pages 6 7 Bat hanging pages 18 19 Mummy pages 14 15 Why wait Get started and be inspired by these projects to transform your home into the spookiest haunted house in town A note about measurements Measurements are given in U S form with metric in parentheses The metric conversion is rounded to make it easier to measure 5
