How to make our simple crepe paper ghost craft
Start by taking your crepe paper and cutting out a large square section. We made ours roughly 30cm x 30cm but you can use any size you like.
Now take your clean tp roll tube and stand it up on the surface in front of you.
Take your square piece of tissue paper and place the centre over the top of your tp roll. Now use your elastic band to secure the crepe paper around the roll about 4cm from the top.
Cut out some basic facial features from your black paper and glue them in place on the head section of tp roll. Use pens to add any additional details.
Finally, we wanted to hang our ghosts up so we cut off a length of yarn and taped one end to the back of the ghost and used the other to attach to the ceiling.
