Hello eighteen25 readers my name is Rebekah and I blog over at a bit of sunshine. It is an honor to be here today to participate in the September Spooktacular. I love decorating for Halloween!!
Today I have a simple paper lantern project that won’t break the bank but will make a huge impact as you get into the spooky mood this season.
Your going to need:
1. a paper lantern, mine is from Ikea
2. black card stock or heavy paper
3. adhesive dots or glue
4. a bat template I used this one
5. scissors and a pen for tracing and cutting
All you will need to do is cut up a bunch of spooky bats and get your adhesive ready.
Stick them all over the place.
It looks even spookier at night!!!
Thanks girls for letting me participate in such a fun event I had a blast!!! Happy September Spooktacular everyone!
make sure to visit rebekah at her sweet blog, a bit of sunshine. and you won’t want to miss out on her fun photo project going on each month… ten on ten.
