Introduction: Flight of the Bats

We wanted dramatic decorations for our annual halloween party. The drama came in the form of 125 bats flying through our house and out the back door.

We used 5 different styles of bats cut using a Cricket and hung them with simple fishing line and tacks. The first step was a single line of bats that snaked through room. The bats were hung at graduating heights to give them the appearance of motion. Once we had our basic "flight pattern" we filled in with the rest of the bats.
