Today's post is going to be my first tutorial ~ a ghost tutorial.
I had a couple people ask me how I made my ghost I shared on Friday so here's how I made it.
supplies
wooden post cut to length -i used a scrap 1x1 that measured about 26" -could be any size you desire though
scrap piece of wood for base
cheesecloth (mine was tea dyed & was the smallest pack @ joanns - i think it was the 4yds size)
white fabric (mine was a scrap that was tea dyed too)
stuffing -can be fiber fill or scraps
black fabric or paint for eyes & mouth
Directions:
2. take fabric & cut out ghost shape (need 2 or cut on fold once) (mine was approx 17" long but again you can make any size-i liked having some post at bottom -made the cheesecloth drape nice)
3. sew up sides of ghost body leaving opening at bottom
6. cut out eyes &mouth -glue on or you can paint them on
7. drape cheesecloth over ghost body &cut to desired length (mine went all the way to the base) - i draped 1 piece from front to back then 2nd piece side to side
And you are done!
It's really a fun & easy craft to make. Have fun & let me know if you make one, how it turns out!
