Directions:
- First print the FREE MONSTER BODY template above. You will want one printable, per Halloween monster craft.
- Grab your scissors and the monster printable. Trim around the monster body shape, as well as trimming out the inner circle of his belly. Out of the remaining white cardstock, cut out TWO eyes. Draw in pupils with the black marker. Now discard excess paper. Set aside your monster pieces.
- Now grab your clear contact paper. Cut out TWO pieces that are bigger than the monster cutout.
- Remove the backing from one piece of contact paper. Lay it on a flat surface. Place the monster cutout, face down, on the contact paper. At this point in time, also lay the cardstock eyeballs you made, inside the empty frame as well {face down!}
- Next decorate the inside of their monster however you like {I a sprinkle of Halloween glitter and purple tissue paper inside mine.}
- Once you are done creating the contents, grab the second piece of contact paper.
- Peel off the backing and place it on top of the other piece of contact paper, moving your hand around to “squish” everything together.
- To finish off the Stained Glass Halloween Monster craft, use your scissors to trim out the monster/remove the excess contact paper. Draw on a month with the black Sharpie marker. Then display proudly on a window with tape.
