Make a Halloween Dancing Ghost Ring Front Lawn Decoration
The Dancing Ghost Ring can be made as follows:
List of needed materials: 5 sheets – preferable Queen size; 3 1″X2″ boards (each of them 8′ long) – instead of boards, PVC pipes can be also used; newspapers; black paint or marker; plastic sacks, black thread or non-reflective fishing line.
First, cut the boards in half, which will result in 6 boards of about 4 feet each. Cut angle on one end of the board for an easier drive into the ground.
Make the five ghost heads by filling crumbled newspaper in the plastic sacks. Next, pit bag on top of stick; tie bat at ‘neck’ to board with tape. Put sheet over bag and board. The middle of the sheet should be top of head and equally fall on sides. Using a string or fishing line tie at neck.
Determine the size of the circle you will have based on sheet and tree size. Carefully place stakes – boards – into the ground with a hammer. Don’t drive them too deep as you might have to move them.
Tie the ends of sheets together and attach a piece of black thread the hand of the ghosts meet. Secure the other end of the thread straight above hands to the branch of the tree to keep them off the ground and to obtain the desired effect.
Continue with the next ghost till all are done and the circle is appropriate size and look. Position stakes to proper depth if you failed to complete it already.
