I made Halloween Bats

One of my favorite Holidays is Halloween and I wanted to start making some decorations for it. We can't always afford the big huge things I would love to have for the Holidays so I wanted to look stuff up and find things we could make that would look awesome and some creepy scary for our yard. I found a bunch of cool things we will be making but I made these bats first because I was able to use stuff I already had here at home : D


I used Martha Stewart's Hanging bats as an idea and looked online for some smaller templates as well. You can use the one from this blog or use the allyou "bat storm" template. I made a bunch for our home to decorate with and used clear packing tape to seal them so if we use them outdoors (which we plan to) the rain or other weather elements wont ruin them and we can use them for more Halloweens!! Here are some pictures of the ones we made : )

They are so cute, I made some solid black ones with black construction paper and the orange and purple ones I used some of my Halloween scrapbook paper I had. I can't wait to work on some of the other projects I want to try and do like Black cat window silhouettes, Homemade tombstones, reusable jack o' lanterns, Human sized ghosts, spirit jugs, spooky trees, and mouse motel out of a pumpkin just to name some  of the stuff we are excited about. I will post pictures of the things we make and do my best to post links to how to make your own like I did with the bats!! I know it's early for Halloween but I wanted to try and get some things made here and there so we wont be n a hurry to to make them in time for Halloween. Later all    : )
