We need sturdy paper for the stencil, bat template, black cardboard, black glitter, small black feathers, scissors, pencil or crayon, tesa® multi-purpose glue, tesa Powerstrips® Poster, and tesa® double-sided tape.
Cut a stencil from the sturdy paper according to the template. Trace the bat template onto black cardboard and cut it out.
Use the tesa® multi-purpose glue to trace along the inside lines of the bat.
Spread the glitter onto the wet glue. Blow away excess glitter and let the glue dry thoroughly.
Then fold the wings according to the dotted lines on the template.
Attach approx. 4 cm of tesa® double-sided tape or a Powerstrips® to the body, remove the film and attach two feathers. Use tesa Powerstrips® Poster to attach the bats to branches and/or to the wall.
Have fun with your self-made glitter bats on Halloween!
