My Honeycomb Bell Ghosties!!!

I just LOVE honeycomb paper and I already had these bells when I saw this quickie party decoration idea on the Martha site.

This is my Halloween tree in the dining room and I placed my little Honeycomb Ghosts at the base....but you could easily hang them as well.

 

They are really "easy peasy" and you could also get the kids to hlp make them!

Get a couple of the white wedding bells...

a little gauzey fabric and rip it to size, then for the eyes and mouth I used some flocked contact paper and just quickly cut some shapes.

Drape the fabric over the bell and DONE!!!   Easy Peasy, Upcycled,re-purposed and they make fun party decorations!

Ooh!  I like them much better as ghosts than as wedding bells!

Those would be so fun to hang on the porch and sway in the wind! And so easy to make too!
