Dear friends. I’m going to say this nicely. Gift giving DOESN’T need to be scary this time of year!!!

Now that I got that off my chest, let’s snaz up even the simplest Halloween “surprise” with today’s White Tassel Ghost Halloween Gift Tag idea! #gluedtomycrafts

Inspired by a tassel maker I picked up at my local Target store {I honestly couldn’t resist buying it!} this DIY is super easy and rather inexpensive too! Tie your finished ghost friends to a gift box, a gift bag or even turn them into bookmarks by tying them to a long piece of cardstock.

So many ideas to make this “spook-tacular” craft work in your favor! All it requires is a few wraps of white yarn around your tassel maker, some googly wiggle eyes and a hole punched small circle “mouth” to give it life!

Don’t be spooked – find the full tutorial below! Happy crafting and of course – happy gifting, as well!

Tassel Ghost Supplies:

* Tassel Maker {I found mine at Target but here is a similar version}
* White Yarn {affiliate link}
* Scissors
* Small Wiggle Eyes
* Black Cardstock
* Hole Punch {affiliate link}
* Glue

Directions:

* Follow the directions provided with your tassel maker. Usually this involves wrapping the yarn several times around one section and then tying off & cutting it to create the tassel. Since each tassel maker device is different – please refer to your product directions to complete this step :-) This step requires the white yarn to make the ghost body.
* Once you have the tassel made, string some string through the top part so you can tie it to your gift.
* Now you are ready for the embellishments! Glue TWO wiggle eyes for your ghost to see and use your hole punch to punch a “mouth” out of the black cardstock. Glue that to the tassel as well.
* Then add other embellishments {maybe a small bow for a girl or a bowtie for a boy} and add it to your gift for some Halloween flair!
