I'm not big on crazy Halloween decorations. I have no intention of turning the house into a haunted house. But I like a nod to the season. I have a whole series of classy Halloween decor planned for this month. First up is a simple felt garland made of bats.
This couldn't be any simpler.
Felt Bat Garland
You'll need
1/4 yard black felt
bat template
scissors
sewing machine
Step 1 :: Using the bat template, cut out bat shapes from felt
Step 2 :: Stitch across one bat on the sewing machine. At the end of the bat, place a second bat wing-to-wing and stitch across the second bat to join them together. Repeat with all bats.
Love this! Making this! It looks great against your white brick. I'm going to put single bats on curly wires and stick them into my window boxes so the wind makes them shiver. Thanks for the inspiration.
