Halloween is almost here!! 🎃 We make lots of DIY Halloween Props for our yard haunt and our newest project is a glowing chicken wire ghost! We used chicken wire and an old mannequin to create a DIY chicken wire ghost using basic tools like pliers and wire snips. We hung the chicken wire ghost with fishing line so it looks like the ghost is floating, and then gave her a Halloween lantern to hold that we found at Goodwill®. We painted her with some glow in the dark spray paint and then shined some halloween lights on her at night to get her to glow. For a finishing touch, we added some fog with our fog machine to create an amazing effect that our neighborhood kids say is the best halloween prop we've made yet. 👻

After building dozens of cool projects, we have to say, this is one of the EASIEST DIY HALLOWEEN PROPS we've ever made. It really just takes basic chicken wire and some basic tools and really didn't take that long at all.

If you'd like to make your very own DIY halloween chicken wire ghost , we encourage you to give this easy Halloween project a try!

MATERIALS USED:
Plastic Halloween Lantern (Goodwill® Find)

Thanks for watching! If you're having quality issues, try watching in 1440p or 2160p. We found that all the chicken wire made the compression quality on YouTube lower than usual but the 4K quality fixed it. :) You're all awesome. Have an awesome Halloween! 🎃💀👻

Probably the best chicken wire ghost I've ever seen. They usually sound cool but don't turn out well. This is the new ghost standard I think.

If you guys ever do another project with this much chicken wire, I would look into buying a pair of Safety Wire Pliers. Aircraft mechanics use them all the time, they make wire work WAY easier, and you can pick up a cheap pair at Harbor Freight or Cabela’s for like $30. You guys are awesome! 😃

The movement you guys get in all your poses is so so good! This ghost, the spider, the skeleton pirate. All brilliant!

[VesicaPiscis]

I would add: please always wear protective work gloves!
Y’all are brave! 😜
Well done! This is so awesome and you did great!

My wife and I just viewed this video, the first we've seen of your's. The cander, playful commentary and clean content are so refreshing. The ghost was amazing. From the outside looking in, the ghost is simple to make. But, doing it will take practice on our part. Thank you so much for this video, it is the first of many we will follow with you.

Such an amazing project and I have a big 6'2 mannequin that I'm trying to think what the heck I could do with for one of these

[mushroomsprouts]

I would love to see their decorations on their house, i bet it looks Phenomenal!

This one legit just turned into an art piece. Really gorgeous! I'd be tempted to display something like this in a garden year round.

The hair turned out SO GOOD! I was super concerned when you were talking about adding individual strands, cuz, like, *that's so many hairs*, but adding in a sheet to give the shape and throwing in some individual strands for details worked like a charm

[manabluerose]

You guys did some an amazing job! This is the best ghost wire woman I've ever seen. The hair idea was ingenious. Also your cat is so adorable.

[HeyItsGreg]

I think Lily's fashion might be the future of spooky season!
Another amazing video! I love binge watching your Halloween DIY's ♥

[HalloweenEye]

What a cool project and idea! The video thumbnail was intriguing and I clicked haha!

This is why Halloween is my favorite. Such craftsmanship and creativity.

Your neighbors must Love you! I have a neighbor and she didn't talk to me before, not even wave when she pulled out of her driveway and I was standing 5 feet away. I put up the most awesome Halloween carnival and at Christmas a super cool Mele Kalikimaka display and she turned into a different neighbor! I saw her at a garage sale a couple weeks ago and she was so excited to see me and she told me about another sale with some stuff she thought I could make into new props. Decorating brings the neighborhood together, the kids love it, the parents love it, crotchety old neighbors love it, it is absolutely worth the hassle. I can't wait to try this ghost!

[nazeem]

You guys have quickly become one of my favorite channels I’m already gonna make like 5 of your projects!

[kcherryka]

Wow, she turned out Really Nice!! How exactly was she lit? Multicolored lights placed underneath projecting upwards? Any black lighting to work with the GitD paint? That wasn't very clear and I was definitely interested in knowing how you guys lit her up! Great job, as always!!

[davidareuu]

that is probably the coolest most enchanting sculpture ive seen....thnx

In response to the "Do people make chicken clothes?" I worked with a crazy, old lady who made "duck clothes". In total disbelief, I asked, multiple times, if they were actually clothes that people put on ducks. She said yes and brought in all sorts of odd outfits as proof. Months later, one of our coworkers was going on and on about how great they were and how cute their duck was in the the old lady's latest "Batman Halloween" outfit. I couldn't believe that the crazy had spread to others, so I pulled her aside and questioned her. After she stopped laughing, she informed me that the ducks were stone statues people put in their gardens, and that the "Batman" outfit was the same exact outfit as all the others, only the fabric was a repeating pattern of the old Adam West Batman symbol.

You can even make a angel for Christmas with this idea.
