Crafty time - Cheesecloth ghost!

Hawn Memorial Library in Clayton goes supernatural with its decor! Kristy and Beth show you how to haunt your own library with this cheesecloth ghost: 

Here are two links to different versions of this craft:

We used the Mama Guru directions.  The link for the Love and Laundry site gives a bit of a.....cuter ghost I guess you could say. 

To get the rounded shape, we laid the cheesecloth over a balloon.  The balloon was sitting in a vase to make it tall enough.  (It's amazing all the stuff we have laying around here!)  We placed  the cheesecloth over a spray bottle to get the arm effect.
Expect it to take overnight to dry.

Thanks to Kristy and Beth for keeping my Friday both light and eerie. You can see this ghost-friend in person at the library on Saturday, October 18, during the Punkin Chunkin and Kansas City BBQ Festival!
