Ghostly Halloween Cut Outs

Free Halloween cut outs from Mia's craft Ideas, with easy to follow instructions, diagrams and photo's. The template give you two basic shapes that you can change and adapt to make your own unique decorations.

Mia's ghosts can be as scary or friendly as you like. They are made to a very simple design of paper chains and each ghost is joined to the other.

I have included a free template to get you started but you can easily adapt the design to make larger ghosts. When making the ghost cut-outs leave an area on both sides of your paper that is not cut through so the shapes are all joined together.

Mia’s Top Tip

Cut the shapes out of white tissue paper and hang them in front of a window for a ghostly see through effect.

Try cutting the shapes out of thin card and taping them to the outside of a lampshade.

The shapes will create ghostly shadows around the room.

Make sure the shapes are fixed firmly though so they don't catch fire.
