Look at These Wonderful Halloween Ghosts, Displayed Outside in the Garden.

My friend Asta made the ghosts in the photo and placed them on the deck of a nursing home. They could be seen clearly by the residents from the dining room and the main day room.

The ghosts stayed out in all weathers for a few weeks and made a great addition to the Halloween display.

Method:

Tape the upper end of the stick to the ball by winding the tape several times around both, and then attach it securely to the back of the chair (with tape or string).

Paint ghostly eyes and mouths on the white sheets (loosely drape the sheets over the ball to find and mark where to put the eyes before you start painting).

Drape the sheet over the balls, as you can see in the picture, and use safety pins or stapler to fix the sides of the sheet into place.
