Create a Frankenstein for Halloween

Hi Friends!
I found a super cute Frankenstein craft. There is a lot of pre-cutting needed but if you have older teens or volunteers at your school or library ... this is a great project for them.  The template is located here: http://fromabcstoacts.com/frankenstein-sun-catcher.
I made the craft more cost effective by not using contact paper. This will create a sturdy Frankenstein instead of a suncatcher. You can take the green paper away so that light flows in, just keep in mind that it may be harder for little ones to glue the pieces this way.


Here's what you need;
-  Green tissue paper
-  Glue and Black Crayons
-  Black and White Cardstock
-  Printer

Directions: 
Pre-cut the green tissue paper into 1-inch squares. Various shades of green are fine.
Print out the template and begin gluing the squares to the frame of Frankenstein boxed shaped head.
Carefully attached the squares line per line. Similar to how you would add fringe to a pinata.
Glue eyes, bolts, eyebrows etc...
Draw some scars and a smile for scary fun!
