- We took a medium size box, cut out the sides
- Painted it all black with acrylic paint
- We used a cereal box to cut four triangles and taped them together to make the roof
- We added some ghostly cut outs, curtains and ribbon
- I placed inside two plastic tea candles, battery operated
- We also added a lighting fixture on the ceiling. You can find the miniature house lighting fixture at a hobby store. You can see the picture below, I photographed it next to a quarter so you can see the actual size of the lighting fixture
- Lastly, we placed some dancing skeletons inside and pumpkins on the outside.
A little bit of bubblegum here, a little bit of duct tape there and wah-lah! a master piece!
