Last Halloween, I didn’t have anything festive to wear for the school’s Halloween bake sale and dance. We had foam Halloween themed stickers everywhere from various art projects. I also had a couple of sectioning clips laying around. I quickly grabbed some glue and put something together. It turned out much better than I anticipated and my girls were fighting over who was going to wear it.
When I was going through my Halloween stickers to pull out for crafts, I stumbled upon the clip I made last year. My girls saw it and immediately asked to have a clip making play date with friends. I went to the local hair supply store and purchased more clips. I found an 80 pack, because we can make clips for all the other upcoming Holidays with the leftovers. You can also make a bunch to give to friends or hand out as an allergy friendly treat alternative. My older daughter had a clip making play date yesterday. Today we continued the fun and made more- the perfect activity for the cold and rainy day we had.
Here is how to make them (you can find most of the supplies at Michaels if you don’t already have them).
Supplies needed:
- Glue gun (for adult use, I used this for our clips this year). You can also use heavy duty craft glue
- Double prong clips
- Creatology foam stickers and any other halloween stickers you may have.
- Glitter Glue
- Paint Brush
Directions:
- Glue your starting shape or sticker onto the clip (Shapes aren’t necessary but we used scraps from our Creatology Haunted House we put together earlier on in the week as a base to add more than one sticker)
- Glue on any additional stickers or designs you would like.
- Use a paint brush and add some glitter glue for some extra shine.
- Let dry then show off your Halloween Hair.
- For a little extra, we hung our clip designs on the Creatology Halloween Boo sign we made (pictured above).
Have a Happy Halloween! 🎃👻
