We used chicken wire and an old mannequin to create a DIY chicken wire ghost using basic tools like pliers and wire snips. We hung the chicken wire ghost with fishing line so it looks like the ghost is floating, and then gave her a Halloween lantern to hold that we found at Goodwill®. We painted her with some glow in the dark spray paint and then shined some halloween lights on her at night to get her to glow. For a finishing touch, we added some fog with our fog machine to create an amazing effect that our neighborhood kids say is the best halloween prop we've made yet. 👻 After building dozens of cool projects, we have to say, this is one of the EASIEST DIY HALLOWEEN PROPS we've ever made. It really just takes basic chicken wire and some basic tools and really didn't take that long at all. If you'd like to make your very own DIY halloween chicken wire ghost , we encourage you to give this easy Halloween project a try!

Did I miss it, or did you skip how you lit it? You can't leave the technical stuff out for us creatively challenged folks...

We just pointed a light at it. :) Nothing fancy at all. It's called a "Fire and Ice" style light so it kind of rotates and creates cool effects. It's just on the ground pointed up at the ghost. The metal and the glowing paint reflect it and help it light up really nicely!
