Eyeballs and Ghosts - Spooky Handmade Halloween Decor!

If you are looking to add some spooky, easy Halloween decor to your home, look no further! If you have black and white yarn, you can make some super cute Halloween decorations! I did a segment on Studio 5 last October, and I thought it would be fun to bring it back! Here’s the whole segment so that you can see how to make these crafts!

These pom pom eyeballs are super easy. You begin by making a pom pom as you would any other pom pom, but you will start with black in just the center of your pom pom maker. Once you have enough black for a pupil, use your white yarn and fill in all the rest of the pom pom. I’ve shared the video from the Studio 5 segment that shows how this will actually look. Then you trim your pom pom into a circle, and that’s it! You have a soft, fuzzy, spooky eyeball!

You can string these little eyeballs onto a garland or you can glue them or stick them all over your house. I like to put them in my plants to make them instant Halloween decor!

To make the ghosts, make a tassel out of white yarn. You can make these chunkier or skinnier with more or less yarn in your tassel. Then cut out some eyes out of black felt. These can just be glued on with a fabric glue. Attach these to a string for a garland or hang them from your door for a spooky entryway. These are super easy but super cute!

I’d love to see your eyeballs and ghosts if you make some for your home! Make sure to tag me in your photos @apricotpolkadot on Instagram!
