Paper Ghost Craft — Work Steps
Draw on orange (any other) cardboard with a compass a circle of any desired size. Cut it out. Cut a strip of light paper slightly narrower than the circle and twice as long.
Fold the circle and stripe in half.
The rocking circle is ready, put it aside for now. And cut out a ghost from paper. It can be absolutely arbitrary, it is not at all difficult to draw a large drop with a tail bent to the side. Also draw a paw, or a handle to a ghost.
Cut out the details, since the paper is folded in half, you will have two ghosts and two hands.
Glue the limbs to the ghost, draw a funny face on it. Then glue one part of the ghost on one side of the folded circle, and glue the other back part of the ghost on the back of the circle so that the tops match up. In the area of the head, you also need to glue it.
That’s all the work, the swinging paper ghost is ready.
You can also make an equally fun origami ghost.
