Halloween Cone Ornament

This project describes how to make a Halloween cone ornament similar to the one shown at right.

This project is rated: EASY

Materials needed:

• Computer paper or card stock
• Craft knife or scissors
• Glue
• Crayons, colored pencils, or paint

Project Instructions

1. Print either the plain pattern at right on paper or the pre-colored pattern if you have a color printer.
2. Color the plain pattern to suit yourself.
3. In either case, cut out the cone along the outer black edges.
4. Roll the cone into an approximate cone shape. It is easier to glue if some shaping is done first.
5. Apply glue to the glue tab. The right edge of the ornament has a dashed line parallel to the right edge. The area between the dashed line and the right edge of the ornament is called the glue tab.
6. Complete the cone by bringing the glue tab under the left edge and press the two edges together with the left edge along the dashed line. You may need to hold the edges together until the glue dries.

You can use the ornament for a Halloween decoration for yourself, or you may want to give it to someone as a gift. Make several to decorate a room for a Halloween party.
