Halloween Craft: Paper Bag Tombstones

Easy to make Halloween decoration for your front yard

By Shannon Phillips

Halloween Craft: Paper Bag TombstonesSo maybe you can’t muster an entire haunted house this year, but that doesn’t mean you can’t partake in the festivities. For minimal cost and energy these tombstones will give trick-or-treaters a kick.

 

To make:

  • Coat large paper grocery bags with black spray paint. Let dry.
  • Round the tops with scissors and use an X-acto knife or paint for the inscriptions.
  • Add white silhouettes for ghosts or red paint for faux blood.

Tip: Illuminate the tombstone and keep the bag weighed down with a battery-operated light source.
