Popsicle Stick Ghoul Friends Supplies:
* Jumbo Popsicle Sticks {3 per ghoul friend craft}
* School Glue
* White Craft Paint
* Foam Paint Brush
* Paper Plate
* White Cardstock
* Black Colored Cardstock
* Various Colors of Colored Cardstock
* Patterned Halloween Scrapbook Paper
* Paper Craft Scissors
* Embellishments like glitter glue, Halloween stickers, small bows etc.
Directions:
* First grab three popsicle sticks {three per ghoul friend} and paint them completely white. Simply squirt some paint on a paper plate and paint one side on each of the popsicle sticks.
* Allow them to dry a bit.
* When they are dry enough to the touch, glue them together to look like a triangle.
* Set aside the newly made triangle piece to let it dry completely.
* Repeat the above steps for each ghoul friend piece you want to make today.
* While your shape is drying, go ahead and grab all your paper pieces & scissors.
* Cut out the center piece {a large triangle for the ghost’s body} as well as long legs with boots, facial features and a tutu shape for your ghoul friend.
* When the popsicle stick shape is dry enough, start gluing on the cardstock pieces. The large triangle adheres to the back of the shape, while the head & legs are on the front.
* To finish off the Craft Stick Ghoul Friends – add ANY and ALL embellishments you want. Be sure to go to town and really give it your own spin!
* When done, set it all aside in an undisturbed area so it can dry completely before you display!
* Don’t forget to snap pictures of your Halloween ghost friends to share with us! #gluedtomycrafts
