Glue Ghost

This glue ghost is easy and simple to make. As long as you keep it away from children and pets, it will last for a very long time. You can make it in many shapes and sizes.

Gather the Things You Need

You will need........

Glue (not hot glue)
String (not thread or yarn)
Wax paper
A permanent marker

The Ghost's Body

Start by cutting the wax paper into a square or rectangle. Then place a string at the top. The string can be long or short depending on how big you want your ghost. Next put a large glob of glue in the middle. Shape it the way you want. Now let it dry for 2-3 days or until it is completely dry.

Finishing Up

Now that your ghost has dried, decorate them using a permanent marker. Then peel them off the wax paper and you are done! They make good crafts for parties and can even be used as Christmas ornaments! If you want to, you can use a hair dryer to make the drying process go faster, but I don't recommend it because it makes them dry wrinkly. I used a hair dryer on mine and they didn't turn out nearly as good as the first time. Also, to make them look better, you should use the shiny side when decorating.

I would like to say thank you to my art teacher for showing me how to make them!
