Here is how you make your own Tomato Cage Ghost for Halloween!
Materials needed for Tomato Cage Ghost
- Tomato cage
- King-size pillowcase
- Sharpie
- String lights (white, orange, purple, etc.)
Here’s what you do:
- First, once you figure out what a tomato cage is (buy at Home Depot or Lowes) and which way to place it (small end on top) it is easy from there.
- Just wrap the cage with the lights (one set per ghost).
- Then, make a cut about 1/4 way up both sides of the pillowcase (so it fits better on the tomato cage)
- Next, use your sharpie to color some eyes and a mouth.
- Finally, slip the case over the cage – and presto – you have floating ghosts!!!!
