Paper bag black cat for Halloween

Thursday, August 23rd, 2007

The neat thing about this craft is it can be a black cat for Halloween, a regular cat for anytime or, with longer ears, an Easter bunny! You can fill it with treats or party favors.

What You Need: brown paper lunch bag, black tempera paint, glue, two cotton balls, two googly eyes, scrap pink construction paper, light-colored gel pen or paint, paint brush, scissors.

How You Make It: Use scissors to cut two ear-shaped notches and rounded cat head shape about 6″ from bottom of paper bag. (Adult may need to do the cutting for younger children.) Paint entire bag, or just the front, black. Let paint dry. Glue on googly eyes, two cotton balls for muzzle and triangle shapes for nose and ears. Use gel pen or white paint to draw whiskers.
