Mummy Ornament

I’m still working on my first Halloween Tree and I’m having a ball.  I’ve been trying to make all of the ornaments kid friendly.  I really like the way this little Mummy turned out.  He’s so cute.

Plastic Skeleton Ornaments

What do you do if you can’t find white skeletons?  That was my problem.  By the time I’d decided to decorate a Halloween Tree, most of the small Halloween decorations were already gone.

I found a package of brightly colored skeletons, and I thought, I can fix that. You know my motto, if you can’t find it, make it yourself!  And that’s exactly what I did.

Cheesecloth Ghosts

I’m making more ornaments for the Halloween Tree!  This one is an ornament that the little ones could make easily.  All it takes is 3 items to make the body, and some sort of eyes. (and if you don’t have cheesecloth, there’s an alternative later on)

Ping Pong Eye Balls

I’m putting up my first Halloween Tree this year, thanks to my sister.  She gave me a black Christmas tree that she didn’t want, and I got all sorts of ideas.  I’ve been making decorations for it all week.  Here’s my first Halloween Tree Ornament that I wanted to share with you.  It’s easy to make, and with a little adult supervision, the little ones could do it too!  Here’s how I made the Ping Pong Eye Balls:
