Read more for all the details on Coffee Filter Ghosts Halloween Craft.
Halloween crafts are some of my favs to do! I love how I can make spooky and scary things, cute!
I might sound like a broken record at this point but crafting for me is therapeutic. I’m not the type of person to just sit around and do nothing so when I need to relax, I like indulging myself in crafts or different hobbies. Whether it’s painting, sewing, or really anything DIY, you can’t take the craft out of me!
I absolutely love this idea of Coffee Filter Ghosts and think they are absolutely perfect to give out too. I love that the materials are also so affordable and you only require a few things. Those are my favourite crafts, hands down! I love crafting so much that I really cannot afford to buy a long list of materials every time I want to start a new craft project.
Do you like intricate crafting projects or simpler ones? I’d love to know!
PIN Coffee Filter Ghosts Halloween Craft FOR LATER:
My niece spent a week with me earlier this month so I thought why not try to do this craft with her. She loves being in my YouTube videos and being a part of my work so I like to include her when I can!
She’s definitely not as crafty as me but she likes YouTube every child nowadays does haha! We did enjoy making these together though and spending time together is what counts!
If you’re a crafty person, were you always a crafty person or did you grow into it as you age? If you’re not a crafty person, did you do crafts as a child? Let me know in the comments!
This Coffee Filter Ghosts Halloween Craft is accompanied by a YouTube Tutorial. If you haven’t subscribed to my channel on YouTube, don’t forget to!

- Prepare and Measure – You’ll need to prepare the materials for this coffee filter ghosts overall:

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO MAKE?
This craft is a quick one to make! It takes about 2-4 minutes per coffee filter ghost so you can make a big batch within an hour of watching your favourite Halloween movie! I suggest making all of the ghosts then drawing their faces! You’ll be a lot faster than stopping to draw for every single one of them.
