2 Easy DIY Halloween Garlands

halloween garland DIY

Halloween gives Christmas a run for its money as my favorite holiday. This year me and Jessica are hosting our first Halloween party so we have been busy making plans and decorating. We made the two garlands in under an hour and I think the bat garland is adorable.

Supplies for Ribbon Garland:
Several Rolls of Ribbon in desired colors and patterns
Scissors
Hot Glue Gun

Directions:
This is just like the ribbon garlands you made as a child. Simply cut the ribbons into pieces about 8 inches long. Create a loop and glue it together. Make the next loop through your first loop and glue the ends together. Continue until you have the desired length.

Supplies for Bat Garland:
Black Twine
Mini Wiggle Eyes
Black Foam or Felt Sheets
Scissors
Hot Glue Gun

Directions:
We used foam sheets but you could easily substitute felt. We made a template on a sheet of paper and used it to cut our bats from the foam. Hot glue the twin to the back of the bats skipping a little space between each bat. Allow to dry. Then on the front of the bats glue two of the wiggle eyes and allow to dry.
