Tip Tuesday: Eco Halloween DIY Bats || Use What You Have

In talking with some of my organizing clients we are constantly trying to think of ways to DIY decorations or use what they have in order to be more eco and still make the house look good for whatever holiday it may be. I saw an article in the Martha Stewart magazine last month and wanted to try it out. It can be made using all products that you already have. Some of my clients have done similar versions as well. Above you will see a quick time lapse video of what we did.

What you need:

• A bat template
• Black paper
• A white pencil or any writing utensil for that matter
• Glue Dots
• Scissors

Here is what I did:

1. Download a template or you can make your own.
2. Cut out the template.
3. Get 2 sheets of black paper and fold them in half. 
4. Trace the bat template along the folded crease.
5. Cut your tracings.
6. Flip the bats over so you can't see your trace lines.
7. Add a glue dot. 
8. Stick them where you want them. 

Here is some inspiration on Pinterest as well.
