Orange Ghost
Helllooo earthlings! I've come to show you something that I made myself for the Halloween season! They're ghosts made from knex! I thought this would be a pretty neat add on to the Halloween spirit! Very easy to make and is hangable, so hang it wherever you want. This goes with any Halloween decoration that is up at your house! It will probably take up to 5 minutes depending if you have the materials ready or not. If you are a fast builder like me, it will only take a minute or 2. Not too many pieces as well, so that's a bonus! So anyway, let's get building!
Supplies
Orange Ghost:
Rods: 8 flexi orange, 8 short green, 1 white
Connectors: 2 blue metalic, 1 purple, 2 white, 16 orange
Special: 2 black y clips, 2 red cirles
Other for the ghost: some string or yarn or a twisty tie to make a hanger

Body
This is the body shape of the ghost. The flexi rods will be bent in the ghost-shape form.
Hanger
This will be the hanger to the ghost. The twisty tie will be the actual hanger here. Once you are done with tying the string together on the connector, you are done!
Glowing Phase (optional)
This step is optional. This is only for if you want your ghost to glow.
Supplies:
Same colored construction paper
Scissors
Same colored glow stick the thick kind, not the skinny ones you can make bracelets out of)
Tape
What you will do is wrap the colored paper around the ghost, cut off the excess, and tape it together. The y clips should be poking out of the paper like in the 3rd picture. Once you are done with that, take off the white knex connector and place the glow stick inside. You don't necessarily need to crack it right away until you need to. I don't have the pictures now, but I will get them in soon!
