Fun Halloween Crafts Created with Stencils!
Thinking about Halloween Crafts? Ready to get started with your preparations to scare up some fun? Well, it’s about that time. You know…
...for all the little ghost and goblins to come out!
Well, I have plenty of great ideas for your Halloween Arts and Crafts and this page is the center for all the fun. You'll find the links to all of the project ideas and many, many
Free Halloween Stencils
too.
The first Halloween Crafts project that I want to share with you is painting
Halloween Pumpkin Stencils
onto a pumpkin (like those pictured here). Decorating your pumpkin with paint is much less messy and safer when getting the kids involved. Not to mention that you can be a lot more creative with paint while doing your Halloween crafts.
Also, I found some great plastic pumpkins at my local craft supply store. These are great because I can pack them away and they’ll be good for next year - a Halloween Crafts project that keeps on spooking.
Pssst! Making your own Costume? Creating your own alter ego for Halloween is a blast. So what are you gonna' be? A witch? A skeleton? Maybe a vampire (they're real popular right now). Click here for some
Printable Halloween Masks
and stencils. Starting with your mask sets the flow for the rest of the costume and here you'll find ideas for how to finish off each mask. Also, don't miss the free witch's hat pattern.
Want to make your own
Halloween Masks
this year (like the one pictured here)? Well start with this Free Pirate Skull Mask Pattern. It's easy to complete the costume with an old pair of jeans that you shred off at the knee and leave ragged ends hanging. Try a horizontal stripped t-shirt. You could even wrap one leg with a flexible piece of cardboard for a wooden leg. Don't forget your parrot. Enjoy!

Best of all this was done on Video for you to follow along with me personally while I share ideas and techniques.
