Fun Crafts to do with Halloween Coloring Pages
Coloring pages can become delightful decorations or fun keepsakes with just a little creativity. After your little ones have finished coloring, consider these craft ideas that will make the most of their beautiful artwork. Here are five unique ways to repurpose coloring pages into something special this season.
1. Colorful Garlands
This craft transforms your finished coloring pages into cheerful garlands perfect for hanging around the home. Start by cutting the pages into fun shapes, such as bats, pumpkins, or ghosts. Next, punch holes at the top of each shape and thread them onto a long piece of yarn or string. You can alternate between shapes and colors for a playful look. Hang your garland in a doorway or across a blank wall. For an added touch, use glitter pens to outline the shapes for a little sparkle!
2. Festive Table Place Cards
Using your colored creations to make place cards can add a personal touch to your holiday gatherings. Take smaller sections of your colored pages and cut them into rectangles. Fold each rectangle in half to create a tent shape. Write guests' names on the front using colorful markers or a metallic pen. These can sit on each plate during dinner, bringing a warm, friendly vibe to your table setting. To make it even more personalized, invite your kids to decorate the place cards with additional doodles or stickers.
3. Creative Bookmarks
Turn those colorful pages into bookmarks that can brighten up story time. Cut the coloring pages into long rectangles, about two inches wide. Once cut, laminate them (or cover them with clear contact paper) to make them durable. Punch a hole at the top of each bookmark and tie a piece of ribbon or twine through the hole. Not only are these bookmarks functional, but they also make wonderful gifts for friends and family who love to read.
4. Spooktacular Window Clings
Make spooky window decorations that are easy to remove and reuse. Take your colored pages and cut out various Halloween shapes. Using a mixture of equal parts water and corn syrup, brush the back of each cut-out with the mixture and stick them to your windows. They will cling beautifully, and you can easily take them down to reuse next year. Plus, this is a fantastic way to showcase your child's artwork for friends and family to see.
5. Interactive Storybook
Bring the art to life by creating a personalized storybook. Gather several colored pages and find a binder or staple them together to create a booklet. Encourage your child to come up with a story inspired by the pictures they've colored. You can write the story together, adding text that describes the fun adventures of the characters on the pages. With each page turning into a story, it ignites creativity and adds an educational twist to your crafts.
