Hello! It’s Ginger from GingerSnapCrafts.com. I am so excited to be over here with YOU & the girls from Eighteen25. Usually I am over on my blog sharing fun crafts & DIY projects, recipes & simple kid crafts & party ideas. So it’s a real treat (not a trick!) to be over here! ha! When I think of Halloween crafts two things come to mind. They need to be simple, & they need to be something my kiddos can make with me. That is why I love making these cute Tin Can Ghost. So keep reading, & I’ll show you how I put them together.

Tin Can Ghost Supplies
A friend of mine gave me this handy can opener. It removes the lid without cutting it. So you can put the lid right back on if you’d like. I used it to take off the lids of my cans.

After I washed & dried out the cans & lids I spray painted them white. Let dry.

Then I added a spooky face with googly eyes & a Sharpie. Next I printed out this printable onto white card stock paper.You Are FabBOOLous Printable
Then I cut them out & glued them onto some Halloween paper making some hang tags.

      If you google hands free can opener they are $12- $15 and cuts so there is no sharp edge. They are battery operated and works with the touch of a button!
