Making the Ghosts
I came up with the idea for these little ghosties while in the shower. Little did I know my daughter would latch onto the concept so severely that we would quickly run out of terrycloth. I am not exaggerating when I tell you we have at least forty of these swirling around our house – with more (paper versions) in production.
What You Need:
- facecloths (or paper towels)
- cotton batting, or a bouncy ball, or a styrofoam ball
- elastic bands
- googly eyes, eye stickers or self stick gems
What You Do:
Grab a facecloth (or a sheet of paper towel).
Drape cloth over some cotton or a bouncy ball, and tie off with an elastic band.
Attach eye stickers, self-stick gems or googly eyes.
Note: Use stickers or tape instead of glue for the eyes if you would like to eventually reclaim your facecloths.
