Halloween Crafts - Tootsie Pop Ghost Tree

 

This is so easy and so cute!

Perfect Halloween craft decoration for the Teacher’s desk or lounge or even put it out for your Trick or Treaters to pick their own ghosts off the tree.

I love Tootsie Pops! The grape and chocolate are my favorites.

Cut out several 6×6 inch squares of muslin or other light weight cotton fabric.

Fold the square into quarters to find the center.  Thread a length of embroidery floss (with a needle) through the center to make a hanger.  Tie in a knot. Place the Tootsie Pop or other candy sucker in the center and pull the fabric down over the sucker.  Tie a length of embroider floss around the stick to form the head and body.

 

With a Sharpie® marker make faces on the ghosts.
