This past week at Brook’s school, I noticed one of the classes working on this skeleton project and decided I would do it with Brook. On Saturday night, Brook was bored and said she wanted to do an art project and I actually felt awesome knowing I had this one in my back pocket…it’s super easy and even your husband will have fun doing it, case in point…
Brook and Travis Working On Their Skeleton
Here is what you will need:
Halloween Skeleton Art Project
- Black Construction Paper
- Cotton Balls
- Q-Tips
- Scissors
- Glue
- Hole Puncher
- String or Ribbon
- White Marker
- Black Stickers or Paint Pen for Face
1 – Glue the head cotton ball on first. Glue one whole Q-tip underneath head for the body and then glue second cotton ball under Q-tip to represent the pelvis area.
2 – Cut off the tips of 4 Q-tips and then cut them in half. Glue them on the right and left of the long “body” Q-tip…they are representing ribs. Tip: if you put the glue on the paper first and then put the Q-tip on, it seems to be easier.
3 – Glue two leg Q-tips under the “pelvis” cotton ball and glue 2 Q-tip arms by the ribs. Use any black stickers you have or some type of paint pen from the craft store to make a face on the skeleton. Or, leave it faceless…your choice.
4 – Use the white pen to put your name on your piece of art. Make two hole punches on the top of the paper and string the ribbon through the hole punches and tie it off. This is so you can hang your art work.
5 – Find a fun place to show it off…
Here is what the finished product could look like…
