Halloween is just around the corner, and what better way to celebrate than with some fun craft activities? If you have completed Halloween coloring pages lying around, here are some inexpensive and creative craft ideas to make the most of them. Get ready to express your creativity and have a spooky good time!
20. Scrapbooking
Scrapbookers, this one's for you! Cut out figures from your coloring pages and use them to decorate your scrapbooking pages. Whether you leave them black and white or color them in, they will add a unique touch to your creations. You can even use an illustrator or paint software to bring them to life in vibrant colors.
19. Journal Or Book Covers
Kick off the spookiest month of the year by using your Halloween coloring pages as journal or book covers. It's both cute and functional! Grab a cheap notebook from the dollar store and have your kids color in the pages. Then, neatly wrap the notebook's cover with the coloring page and glue it down on the inside. For book covers, print off the picture in landscape orientation or use two different images on each side.
18. Trick-Or-Treating Sign
If you won't be home for trick-or-treating, turn your Halloween pictures into a sign to accompany the candy bowl on your front porch. Write “Take 1” or “Take A Few” on the page and laminate it or put it in a page protector. Simply tape the poster onto the candy bowl, and you're all set!
17. Party Decorations
Get your kids involved in creating spooky party decorations using your Halloween coloring pages. Have them choose their favorite illustrations and color them in. You can use the cut-outs to create wall decorations, hanging ornaments, place settings, menus, or signs to direct party-goers. They can also be used to label food items in a creepy spread!
16. Ghostly Luminaries
This simple craft is perfect for kids of all ages. All you need are mason jars and battery-powered tea lights. Print off your Halloween coloring pages and let your kids color them in. They will create a tube out of the pages, roll them up, and tape the ends together. Drop the tea lights into the mason jars, and slip the colored pages over them. Your luminaries will look cute during the day and spooky at night!
15. Window Clings
Make your own window clings with your kids using Halloween coloring pages and puffy paint. Print off the illustrations with the figures you want, and then use puffy paint to outline the characters or items directly onto the page. Wait for the paint to dry completely, and then carefully lift the paint off the page. Place the clings on your windows, and enjoy your DIY Halloween decorations!
14. Treat Bags
Add a personal touch to your treat bags for parties or classrooms. Choose the figures you want from your coloring pages, color them in, and cut them out. Paste them onto plain bags, and you can also decorate them with ribbons, stickers, or marker drawings in matching colors. Your treat bags will stand out from the rest!
13. Cupcake Toppers
Turn your Halloween coloring pages into adorable cupcake toppers. Shrink the illustrations down to about three or four inches, and copy and paste multiple onto one document. Color in the figures and cut them out. Glue extra-long toothpicks to the backs of the figures, and let the glue dry. Stick the toothpicks into your cupcakes, and enjoy spooky treats!
12. Halloween Rocks
Even younger kids can enjoy this basic DIY craft. Shrink your coloring pages down to fit the size of rocks you have. Color in the figures and cut them out. Use Mod Podge to affix the characters to the rocks. To add a personal touch, write “Happy Halloween!” on the back of the rocks along with any identifying information. Get creative with your spooky rock designs!
11. Masks
Some coloring pages are perfect for creating masks. Have your kids color in just the faces and cut them out. Punch two holes on either side of the face and use yarn, string, or twine to tie a piece on each side. These masks will be a hit at any Halloween gathering!
10. Crowns
Turn your coloring pages into Halloween-themed crowns or headbands for a fun party activity. Print off the illustration and have the kids color in just the central figure, whether it's a witch's hat or a ghost. Create strips of construction paper for headbands, glue the figure onto the headband, and wait for it to dry. Voilà! Everyone will have their own personalized Halloween crowns.
9. Bookmarks
Make awesome bookmarks from your Halloween coloring pages. Reinforce the figures with cardstock or glue them onto construction paper rectangles. Punch a hole in the top and add a “tail” of yarn for easy bookmarking. You can even use the origami method to create unique bookmarks!
8. Puffy Ghosts
Let your preschoolers have fun with this craft. Use cotton balls and glue to fill in the lines of ghost coloring pages. They can also color the background or add a 3D effect with glitter glue or puffy paint. These puffy ghosts will be a delight to make and display!
7. Toilet Paper Party Tubes
Get ready for some exciting surprises with toilet paper party tubes. Cut toilet paper rolls in half and have your kids color in the Halloween figures. Fill the rolls with candy, stickers, or small toys, and center the roll with the illustration facing outward on a sheet of paper. Roll it up, tie it off with ribbon or yarn, and create a festive treat for your loved ones!
6. Play Props
Transform your Halloween coloring pages into paper dolls for endless imaginative play. Color in the figures, cut them out, and trace them onto cardstock. Paste the two pieces together, and if desired, attach a crafting stick to bring them to life. Watch as your kids unleash their creativity with these play props!
5. Finger Puppets
Make adorable finger puppets using your Halloween coloring pages. Have your kids color in and cut out the desired figures. Poke two holes near the bottom of the cut-outs and enlarge them with scissors as needed. Your kids can slip their fingers through the holes and have a blast playing with these cute puppets!
4. Pins
Create unique pins using shrink sheets and pinbacks. Print off the illustrations onto shrink sheets and have your kids color them in with markers. Cut them out and bake them as per the instructions. Once they're cooled, hot glue the pinbacks to the cut-outs. Add these pins to your clothes, backpacks, or shoes for a touch of Halloween flair!
3. Haunted House Table Décor
Turn your haunted house coloring pages into stunning table décor. Color in one of the haunted houses, cut it out, and trace it onto cardstock. Cut out the cardstock along with an obtuse triangle. Fold the triangle in half and open it up to make it stand. Glue the edge of the triangle to the back of the haunted house, and add a tea light to create a spooky glow!
2. Floating Ghosts
With paper plates and popsicle sticks, you can make adorable floating ghosts. Cut a small rectangle from the center of a paper plate. Color in or leave the ghosts on your coloring pages as they are. Glue popsicle sticks to the back of the ghosts, and have your kids make them float along by poking them up through the hole in the paper plate.
1. Greeting Cards
Finally, turn your completed coloring pages into adorable and convenient greeting cards. Print out the illustrations on half or quarter pages and fold them accordingly. Get creative and color in the illustrations. Don't forget to write “Happy Halloween” inside and add a witty message to the front. These personalized greeting cards will surely make someone's day!
