Such a fun project! Halloween isn't my favorite holiday but I can still decorate my house with cute stuff, right? I remember my mom having a ghost decoration that she would hang from the ceiling. So fun and cute. I remembered that ghost when I saw this tutorial for a cheesecloth ghost.
It was simple enough. She uses cornstarch mixture to make them but you can also buy liquid starch. I feel like the cornstarch mixture was great for making just the 2 ghosts that I did BUT it got really chunky and so there are chunks of dried cornstarch all over my ghosts. The liquid starch would have made them look prettier but I would never use the rest of that huge bottle for anything else.
I found the cheese cloth in the fabric section. I got 4 yards and used two pieces for each ghost. I have a little bit left over.
I used a tall cup and a small balloon as my mold for these ghosts. The balloon was great because when they were dry I just popped the balloon and it peeled away from the cheesecloth. My ghosts took 2 days to dry and then I glued on two felt eyes on each of them.
So, here ya go!
