Haunted House

Today I decided to make the little Design-a-House #120911 that is in the Holiday Mini Catalog on page 37 for $5.95. You can make this quick little house into a Haunted House, Christmas House, Gingerbread House, etc. It is very easy and quick to put together. All you need is the house and Sticky Strip. I spray painted it black.
Then decided to add some glitter all over the house so just put some on there when I sprayed the last layer of paint before it dried.

After it was completly dried I added some vellum paper in the windows and stamped a spider on one of the pieces. Then I cut out a lot of bats and adhesived them to a heavy thread and added them to the house. The center piece in the middle of the house was made by making an accordion fold with a 1 x 12 inch paper and scoring it in the middle, fan it out and glue it to a scalloped circle. You could also add a little light under it so it would show through the windows. This would also make a great gingerbread or Christmas House to make with your little ones or a classroom of little kids in a center.
