DIY Black Cardstock Bats

supplies for making black cardstock bats
  1. First, download the large and small bat templates at PJs and Paint. Then print the templates and cut out one of each size to serve as your pattern.
  2. Second, using the pencil or pen of your choice, trace two large and three small bats onto black cardstock.
  3. Third, cut out the bats and using a hand-held paper punch, punch a hole near the top of each bat’s head.
  4. Fourth, fold each bat in a wide fan fold to suggest dimension and movement of the wings.
  5. Last of all, thread a length of fish line through the hole in the bat’s head, knot the line, and trim the excess line from the short end.

  4. Fourth, sprinkle candy corn across the display.
  5. Fifth, if you have a lower bar or shelf on your side table, accent it with mini pumpkins.
  6. Last of all, hang the sign and bats to complete your display.
