I’m driving by with a new flesh idea and I’m clashing together Halloween & my son’s love of trucks!

Keep scrolling to see how I pull together this Paper Plate Halloween Truck kid craft idea!

This “haunted Halloween truck” idea has been in my head ALL month long but I just couldn’t get it out. Till now…that is!

I think I drove my husband crazy last night because every time I changed the tiniest thing on this craft, I would come running, asking him “does it look like a truck NOW?” He was hung up on the tires {he still says they are too thick} but I was more concerned about the window part, with the pumpkin heads peeking through. Oh well – I’m happy with it now and I hope you see the vision too!

Find the full tutorial below and get inspired to recreate it as well!!! Happy crafting, my friends! #gluedtomycrafts

Paper Plate Halloween Truck Craft Supplies:

• Large Paper Plate
• Scissors
• Black Craft Paint
• Paint Brush
• Various Colors of Cardstock {black, gray, white, yellow, purple}
• Glue Stick
• Stapler
• Skull Paper Punch {Amazon affiliate link}
• Pumpkin Face Stickers {Dollar Tree}
• optional – markers, glitter, rhinestones etc.

Directions:

• First things first – cut your LARGE paper plate in half. You only need ONE paper plate half per truck. You can either make two trucks today or save one half for a rainy day. The choice is up to you!
• Next up – paint the paper plate half completely black with a paint brush. Set aside to let your piece dry completely.
• Using scissors and our picture above as a guide, you will want to cut out the truck’s bed {a half circle shape} bumper {long rectangle} wheels {small rectangles} lights {circles} grill {rectangle} and a window {rectangle} out of the various colors of cardstock. At this point in time, if you have the paper punch, also cut out a skull shape for the front of the truck.
• Go ahead and staple and/or use the glue stick to secure them in the designated spots.
• When everything is in place, grab the pumpkin face stickers and place them in the truck’s window to look like they are driving the haunted truck.
• Finally – if desired, add anything else you like for that custom look, before displaying proudly for all to see!
