Pom Pom Bat Halloween Decorations
How cute are these pom pom bat halloween decorations? We started making them last halloween, and became addicted, hanging them everywhere. They are really easy – a perfect craft for little fingers. The added benefit of virtually no mess.
Materials
- Black wool
- Pom pom maker (or circles / donuts shapes of thick card)
- Black card
- White paper
- Googlie Eyes
- Glue
Method
First off you need to make mini pompoms. I have a little pom pom maker (machine) and a pom pom maker (daughter) to make these in our house! Always good to outsource when you can.
Make the bat wings using the black card, or thick black paper. Rough and ready is fine.
Glue the pom pom bat to its paper wings, and add googlie eyes.
Cut fangs and teeth from a small piece of white paper, and glue in place.
Pom Pom bats make cute non scary decorations for small kids who aren’t wanting the full goolish, gruesome experience.

Thanks Trixi – so easy to make, and even better if you can rope in some cheap chid or teen labour!! Hope you had a great halloween.
Those look like a lot of fun to make, plus love the involvement of the little ones. I’ll have to check out those pom pom makers for sure 🙂
