Detailed Step-by-Step Instructions:
Prepare the Yarn: Measure and cut your white yarn into 6-inch lengths. You will need multiple pieces depending on how long you want your garland to be.
Fold and Tie the Yarn: Fold each piece of yarn in half. Take a long piece of yarn to use as the base of your garland. Tie the folded pieces onto this base strand, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Ensure each tassel hangs evenly.
Draw Ghost Faces: Using a black marker, draw faces on the tassels to turn them into ghosts. You can vary the expressions to make some ghosts look scary and others look friendly.
Hang Your Garland: Use tape to hang your ghostly garland in a desired location. Good spots include across windows, around doorframes, or even outside on trees to sway in the breeze.
Admire Your Work: Step back and enjoy the ghostly ambiance your craft has added to your Halloween decor.
