Halloween cork bats are terribly cute!

And terribly easy to create!

Supplies

You Will Need:

All you need are corks. (approximately 2inches in size).

Black felt.

Craft twine.

Black and white acrylic paint.

A paintbrush.

Scissors.

Hot glue gun.

Step 1: Print the Template

Copy-paste-print the pattern sheet.

Cut out the paper pattern for the wings and ears.

I'm making 12 'terribly cute bats'.

With the thought on Halloween to gift away a bat to the little people trick or treaters.

So I needed wings and ears for 12 creatures.

You can pin the pattern pieces on the felt or just free-form cut them as I did.

Using a hot glue gun, glue the ears to the cork as shown.

Put glue in the middle of the wings and fold the felt around the cork as shown.

Paint white circles for the eyes.

(Dry with a hairdryer for fast drying)

Then paint the black pupil onto the eye.

(Dry again with a hairdryer).

#You could also use small-size plastic boggle craft eyes instead of painting them.

Make a hanger.

Loop a piece of twine or ribbon and hot glue to the base of the cork.

Then display it on a raw branch in a vase.

You could paint the branch orange, black or white.

But I have left mine naturally raw.
