DIY Felt Black Cat Halloween Lights


I changed this summer wreath into a cute Halloween wreath with these black cat lights I made. You can make them too. It's easy and inexpensive.
First you'll need a few supplies:

1) One piece of Black Stiff Felt
2) Gold Metallic Acrylic paint. I used Deco Arts Champagne Gold.
3) Orange Mini Lights
4) A pair of Scissors
5) Black Cat Pattern


After you have all your supplies, you'll want to download & print out the black cat pattern.

A) Cut the cat shape out of your printout.
B) Using a pencil, trace the cat shape onto your black felt. You'll need ten cats.
C) Use a pair of sharp scissors to cut the cats out of your felt.
D) Paint the face onto the felt using a pretty metallic acrylic paint.
E) After the paint has dried. Use the sharp edge of your scissors to punch a small hole for the light to pop through.
F) Push a light through each hole for the eyes.
G) Hang your cat lights on a wreath, fireplace mantel, or any where you'd like to add some Halloween fun.

Halloween Bat Tutorial & Pattern


I made these bats a few years ago on my old blog. They were pretty popular, so I thought I'd add them on this blog too. These are super easy and inexpensive to make.

1) Click HERE to download my PDF bat pattern.
2) Print Pattern.
3) Cut out pattern and trace bats onto black stiff felt, or black card-stock.
4) Cut bats from felt or card-stock.
5) Glue a square piece of paper or card-stock to the back of the bat. This will make hanging the bats using masking tape easier.
6) hang from mantel, ceiling, stair railings, & etc. (I used masking tape to adhere the bats to my wall and fireplace mantel.
7) Optional: I folded each side of the bat to the center to make them look like they are flying.
