These milk jug ghost lanterns are a simple way to add a little spook, as well as a little light to your Halloween. It’s also a super fun Halloween craft you can to do with the kids!
What You’ll Need
Clean plastic gallon milk jugs
Black permanent marker
Craft knife
String of 50 clear low-wattage clear holiday lights
Directions
1. Draw ghost eyes and mouths on the jugs. (Tip: Leave the cap on jug to prevent denting)
2. Use the craft knife to cut a half dollar size hole in the back of each jug. 3. Arrange the jugs near each other and string the lights between them, poking a few lights into each jug.
This is great! I love how it looks and using lights instead of candles is awesome! I have gone over to using battery candles for outside things whenever possible, but I don’t feel that it’s terribly cost effective.
