Step 2

Glue a whole Q-tip with 6 half Q-tips, slanted, on both side of it – for ribs.

 

Step 3

Get 2 Q-tips for each arm and leg.  Place them however you want to… I placed them in sideways letter ‘V’ forms.

 

Step 4

Now, cut 5 Q-tips in half… each half will be one of the fingers.  Glue them all around the top arm bone.

 

Step 5

Cut 6 Q-tips in half…one half will be the foot bone and the rest will be for the toes.

 

Step 6

Cut out the size skull you want from the template and glue on to the black paper.

 

That is one cool skeleton, huh?!  And, what is even more cool about it is that you could find the materials for this Halloween craft around your house.  There was no need to go out and buy anything.  If you are looking for other Skeleton types of crafts check out our Skull Flashlight Cover and our Skull Trick or Treat Basket.
