Framed Bats

Check out this inexpensive simple Halloween decor project that took me about 5 minutes to make! Another nice and easy thing for me to add to Ronda's October display table.


Supplies:
-dollar store frame
-cardstock to fit inside the frame
-a piece of newspaper, burned around the edges
-3 bat silhouettes
-gluestick


Directions:
-carefully burn the edges of a piece of newspaper. This was the hardest part (and it's easy). Obviously use caution when doing this, you'll be amazed how fast the paper burns! I did it with a lighter over our big kitchen sink, burn a small portion at a time and be ready to blow it out quickly - watch for the little embers that fly away so they don't land outside of the sink.
-glue the paper to the cardstock.
-punch or cut out bat silhouettes from black cardstock and glue on top of the paper.
-put in dollar store frame.
-display!

Found this cute idea here.
