Cupcake Liner Bat Craft

I’ve probably told this story before, but it’s one of those memorable things. At about 2 in the morning a few years back, I was awoken by screams from upstairs followed by the fastest footsteps coming down the stairs. There was a bat in the boys’ room. No idea where it came from. And then just like that, as we were deliberating our options, it disappeared. We still have no idea where it went. Thankfully, there will only be screams of joy making this bat craft.
Easy Cupcake Liner Halloween Bat Craft
For our cupcake liner bats, you will need wooden clothespins, black acrylic paint, a white paint pen, cupcake liners in assorted colors, and scissors.
Bat Cupcake Liner Craft Supplies Needed
- Wooden clothespins
- Black acrylic paint
- White paint pen
- Cupcake liners – assorted colors
- Scissors
Bat Craft Step by Step Directions
Begin by painting wooden clothespins black.
Let the paint dry completely.
While the paint is drying, fold a cupcake liner in half. Then fold again.
Now, on the main fold, cut a V coming from the curved edge. Make sure you don’t cut all the way through to the top. You could also cut a smaller V on top of the fold with the longer V on bottom. Again, make sure you don’t cut all the way through.
Then, cut a jagged edge along the curved edge.
When the clothespins are completely dry, use a white paint pen to make two small white dots for eyes and a W for fangs.
Finally, clasp the cupcake liner in the clothespin. This completes your super cute and fun Halloween bats! Make more in more colors!
