Happy October!! I figured we should start out October with a little Halloween fun!
I came up with these little simple hanging bats this last week, and I must say I am in love with them!!
They are made from an easy ball pattern with the wings and ribbons sewn in. The wings also have pellon inside to make them a little more stiff. Then I hand sewed on some felt eyes! And wa-la! Adorable hanging bats!!
And my kids can play with them or throw them around and nothing/no one gets hurt. It's fantastic! Only 30 days left until Halloween!! I better start on my other spooky projects!!

I love them! Don't you have my name for Christmas?? I don't think you do...but you should. :)
ReplyDeleteLove your bats - they're adorable! It would never have occurred to me to use a ball as the base for the bat (how's that for alliteration?) - that's such a great idea!
ReplyDeleteLook at the crafty you! So cute! The eyes are perfect! xoxoxo
