Funny Mummy

I like to come up with funny & original Halloween crafts for my kids – this project is super easy and perfect if you’re looking for a party activity…

Step 1:

Mummies made from rubber coated flexible wire and strips of muslin are easy to make and a look cute hanging around the house for Halloween.

Step 2:

The bendable wire frame allows you to position your mummy any way you like.

Step 3:

Relaxing Dude Mummy.

Step 4:

Yoga Mummy.

Step 5:

To make these you will need: flexible wire (I used a flexible garden tie that I picked up in the dollar spot at Target – but I have seen these at dollar stores too. If you can't find this – look for any flexible wire at craft stores), wire clippers and muslin.

Step 6:

Using the flexible wire, make the frame for your mummy body.

Step 7:

Tear muslin into 1/2-inch strips. I do the "snip and rip" method to speed this up; make a small cut and then rip the rest of the fabric.

Step 8:

Wrap your wire form with muslin strips. Add strips by tying ends together. End muslin with a knot and trim ends.

Step 9:

Let your mummy hang out.
