How to make a DIY Flying Ghost from a Trash Bag or Container

This tutorial will show you how to up-cycle or repurpose a simple clear container with a trash bag in order to create a super cool flying ghost.

Material List:
1. Clear container, you can use any that is equivalent or here's one that I used (You can find this at walmart or grocery store too for way less than link here): https://amzn.to/3t99gJo

2. Any white trash bag, 13 gallon type (Or surprise me and use a black trash back with white eyes and mouth)

3. Black duct tape or actual face print out for eyes and mouth.


4. Double sided glue dots. I used this type: https://amzn.to/43NfdsN but feel free to use hot glue gun or easily accessible tape or adhesive.

For landscape type:
1. Garden stakes, yard sign holder or food skewers work too:

2. Plastic washer I used (Metal washers work well too): https://amzn.to/43PTm43

For hanging type:
1. Rope/yarn or twine.
Pro Tip: When using Rope/Yarn/Twine, you can make a big knot and feed line through top of ghost. It's even easier to tie line to a small screw and feed through hole as it anchors itself to top of ghost.
