Cupcake Liner Skeleton Craft Supplies:

* White Cupcake Liners {affiliate link}
* {2} Sheets of Black Cardstock
* Glue Stick/School Glue
* New/Unused White Q-Tips {affiliate link}
* Basic Craft Scissors
optional – glitter, rhinestones, etc!

Directions:

* First things first – take TWO white cupcake liners and flatten them out with your hands.
* Grab your scissors and cut a small amount off the liner {on both sides} to give more of a “head” shape look. Repeat for each skeleton you want to make on your paper.
* Next glue down each cupcake liner piece {in various spots} onto a single sheet of black cardstock. This step may take some extra effort but it’s super easy for kids to do.
* Once the cupcake liners are down, grab another sheet of black cardstock and trim out some facial features for your skeleton. Think eyes, mouth, nose etc.
* To finish your Cupcake Liner Skeleton, simply glue the cardstock pieces in their designated spots, as well as some q-tip “bones” to really give it that Halloween feel.
* Then add other embellishments you see fit.
* When done decorating, allow it to dry completely before you display your Halloween piece proudly for all to see.
