Wooden Spoon Bat Craft for Halloween

Halloween is coming! Let’s make some craft about Halloween : )

Materials:

  • Wooden Spoons
  • Black construction paper
  • Scrap of white paper
  • 2 googly eyes (7mm size)
  • Crafter’s tape
  • Paint and paintbrush

Carefully paint the back side and edges of the spoon. I didn’t bother painting the front of the spoon since you won’t be able to see it.

 

While you’re waiting for your spoons to dry, cut out your bat wings from black construction paper.

Fold the construction paper in half, draw a bat wing shape, then cut out the wings along the fold so they’re symmetrical.

You can print out my printable bat wing template to trace if you like. Just click the image below (or Bat-Wings-Template) and print the pdf on standard printer paper. Just make sure your printer is set to print the sheet at 100% size.

Once the spoons are completely dry, cut out two small black triangle ears from the construction paper and two small triangle fangs from the white printer paper. Attach them using crafter’s glue dot tape (the link is in the list of materials above). I find that the glue dot tape is a little easier to work with than standard crafter’s tape for small pieces like these.

Attach the googly eyes to the spoon using crafter’s glue dot tape.

Then carefully line up the spoon over top and press it onto the crafter’s tape.

Gently fold the bat wings up over the each side of the spoon

When you let go of the fold, the wings should be bending slightly up off the table. Just enough so that your bat isn’t completely flat.

Then repeat the steps for the rest of your bats!
