Thanks for visiting the Tightwad Training Camp blog. This blog is now in archived-only status with no new posts. I've decided to leave it online & accessible due to a request for the information within the older posts.

If you are interested in both frugality and healthy eating, you might enjoy my other blog, Supper In Seconds, where I present recipes from scratch that take 10 minutes or less hands-on time to prepare.

30 Days of Tips - Halloween Decorations

Tip #25: Try these ghostly cheap Halloween decorations.

Make small ghosts from a white washrag (or square of fabric) wrapped around a few cottonballs. Tie tightly just under the cottonballs to form a little ghost head & body. Draw or glue on eyes, mouth & other details. Put an ornament hook through the top of the fabric for hanging.

Make a large ghost by hanging a white sheet over a tomato cage. Stuff with a small pillow on top & tie if desired to form a head & body. Cut out eyes & put a lamp (no candles, please!) under the ghost to make him glow or draw on eyes with black or glow-in-the-dark paint. Consider a blacklight lamp under your ghost for a strange effect.
