Ghosts of coffee past

Supplies needed:
  • Coffee filters
  • Tinfoil, tape
  • string
  • markers (we only used black)

Directions:
  • tape a length of string to the center of a piece of tinfoil
  • Crumple tinfoil into a ball
  • Poke a small hole in the center of a flattened coffee filter with a large pin or a sharp pencil
  • thread the string through hole in filter
  • form filter paper around tin foil
  • draw on ghostly faces
hang string from ceiling, door frame or use your imagination




Inspiration for this project (adjusted supplies and simplified) goes to my mum's gift from Usborne Books - Spooky things to make and do.

Wow, you can do a ton of fun projects with coffee filters. I guess its time to invest.
