Halloween Project and Printable - Boo Garland


Today's post is an easy Halloween craft project with a free printable! I designed and made this fun Halloween Boo garland as a display prop for my shop, and thought you guys might like to make one as well.

This can be made in just a few easy steps.

Materials:
1)Plain white card stock
2)Black Glitter (I used glass glitter here)
3)Ribbon or Vintage Seam Binding
4)Glue
5)Hole Punch
6)Scissors

Instructions:
1)Print out the 2 template pages (Link for PDF files is below)

2)Cut out the images.

3)Use hole punch to add holes to sides of images. I used a ribbon punch, which gives you 2 little slits to weave the ribbon through.

4)Apply glue to the black decorative border. (I like "Aleene's Paper Glaze" or "Diamond Glaze" as they keep the glitter from shedding)

5)Sprinkle on glitter (You could make this project without the glitter and it would still be sweet)

6) Let glitter dry.

7)Thread ribbon or seam binding through the holes.
