Paper Plate Crafts For Halloween

Every year on Oct 31, children and adults Hold Halloween by dressing up in costumes, going to parties, going trick-or-treating, giving outside sweet and decorating their homes with Halloween decor. Round off the corners on the mask using your scissors. Create eye holes by drawing two circles where you want the eye holes to be. This is easier if you hold the plate up to the person who plans on wearing the mask and mark exactly where their eyes will be on the mask.



Scare your friends with a black cat mask. Start by cutting off the lower half of a paper plate. From this part, cut out two small triangles for the cat's ears. Kids ofttimes conforming to accomplish Halloween arts and crafts projects too. Owing to the best kind crafts are those that wish dispassionate a unusual materials, slap creating spooky Halloween crafts from something as child's play as a paper plate.

Black Cat Mask

Use an X-Acto knife or straight-edged blade to cut out the eye holes. Paste the ears onto the mask in their proper place. Paint the entire mask with black craft paint--acrylic or tempera paints work the best. Once the paint dries, add a felt nose and whiskers to your cat mask. Use a hole punch to punch a hole on both sides of the mask. Tie one end of a piece elastic through each hole.


Jack-o-Lantern


Skip the mess of carving a pumpkin by making a jack-o-lantern from a paper plate. Simply paint the entire paper plate with orange craft paint. While the paint is drying, cut out your jack-o-lantern face (eyes, nose, mouth) from a piece of black construction paper. Stick with the tried-and-true triangle eyes and nose with a jagged smile, or get creative and use wacky shapes and designs. Glue the black pieces onto the paper plate once the paint is completely dry. Add a green paper stem and a green spiral pipe cleaner to complete your jack-o-lantern.


Spider Web


Create a spider web by first painting a paper plate black. There should be no white spots by the time you are done painting. Allow the plate to dry completely. Place the plate in a foil pie dish. Dip a marble in white paint and place it on the black paper plate. Rock the pie dish back and forth to roll the marble around the plate. The marble should leave a white trail as it rolls across the plate. Continue to rock the pie dish until you have created a beautiful and unique spider web.
