  • Printable sheets
  • Scissors
  • Pencil
  • Hole puncher
  • Tape

Instructions

  1. Print out the Eerie Critters Halloween Garland Cutouts Template.
  2. Begin by cutting your construction paper lengthwise in two-inch-wide strips. You will need at least two total.
  3. Fold the strip in half, then fold it in half again, and then for an additional time so there should be eight equal squares.
  4. Fold your strip like an accordion, alternating the front and back side of the paper.
  5. Trace your template so that the straight edge of the shape lines up with the fold in your strip.
  6. Carefully cut around your template and stretch your garland out for the big reveal.
  7. Repeat steps 2-6 depending on how long you want your garland to be.
  8. Make a single hole punch centered in the top third of each individual cat or bat shape.
  9. Line up two of your cat strips and tape them together to create a longer garland.
  10. Thread your string through the holes.
