Don\u2019t be too scared. Halloween vibes are parading through the air as this spooky day awaits us.\u00a0 This year Halloween has a \u201ccase of the Mondays,\u201d but that won\u2019t stop the yearly festivities.\u00a0 If you\u2019re looking for a low-key Halloween grab some friends, put on a scary movie, and get some art supplies for some relaxing and affordable Halloween crafts.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The supplies you will need for this craft:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Toilet paper rolls (or paper towel rolls); orange, green, purple, and black paint (paint colors may vary depending on what you may choose to paint); glue; string; scissors; and colored paper.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Take your toilet paper (or paper towel tube) and preferred paint color, and then paint your tube. For example, orange to resemble a pumpkin.\u00a0 If you do not have paint, feel free to use your colored paper.\u00a0 While the tube dries, take your colored paper and cut out the details for your specified character. For example, black triangles for a jack-o&#8217;-lantern or a mouth, eyes, and teeth for Dracula.\u00a0 If you do not have colored paper opt for plain paper (or even an old assignment) and color it in.\u00a0 Using glue, adhere the colored paper to the tube.\u00a0 Get creative with it! Switch up the colors, give them funny hair, the sky is the limit!\u00a0 Punch holes on the sides of each tube.\u00a0 Using some string, thread each tube together to from a festive garland to hang in your dorm!\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Craft inspired by: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.womansday.com\/home\/crafts-projects\/g2490\/halloween-kids-crafts\/?slide=1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.womansday.com\/home\/crafts-projects\/g2490\/halloween-kids-crafts\/?slide=1<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For the next craft you will need:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Empty tissue box, paint, or colored paper, pencil, and lights (optional).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cold season is upon us.\u00a0 Save your empty tissue box from the season to change into a pumpkin! If your tissue box has plastic around the opening, carefully remove it while keeping the box intact.\u00a0 Next, take your desired color of paint and paint your tissue box.\u00a0 If you do not have paint, opt for colored paper.\u00a0 Once the paint is dry, take a pencil to sketch how you would like your pumpkin to look. Using your scissors, cut out the shapes you previously sketched.\u00a0 If you have access to black paint and have some spare time, paint the inside of the tissue box for a spooky effect.\u00a0 You can also decorate the inside how you wish.\u00a0 Once the inside of the box is dry, place a LED candle inside for a dorm-friendly pumpkin!\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wherever this Halloween season brings you, stay safe and keep an open mind.\u00a0 Enjoy fall and make friends along the way!\u00a0 Happy Halloween!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0by Mia Shelton BOO!
