Love this!! Such a cute and simple idea! We’re definitely going to have a few tomato cage ghosts in our yard this Halloween!
Let me know how they come out!!!
So cute! I saw something similar to yours last year. Get a few big white latex balloons, put one of those light sticks inside (don’t activate yet) and fill with helium. Do this on the afternoon of Halloween. Then, that evening, activate the light stick (usually by bending it), put a large piece of cheesecloth over the balloon and secure with double stick tape on the top. Now you have a floating light up ghost. Get out the ladder and tie the end of the string leading to the balloon either in your bushes, the rain gutter, low branches in a tree, things like that. The light sticks give an erie glow and with the cheesecloth over the balloon it makes it look like they are floating! I’m going to try it this year! I may make some like yours also and have a whole haunted mansion like theme!
LOVE this idea!
I am making these with my children this Fall! I can’t wait!
I love this tutorial! Please share this tutorial at my Show-Licious Craft & Recipe Party!

Ha! So fun – My dad will love this idea! Pinning!
I have two tomato cages saved from several past attempts to grow tomatoes. This is an excellent way to use them and more fun. Thanks for the tip. I hope you have some cute ideas for Christmas decorating with the cages.
Just now I had the chance to come back here and thank you for the tutorial, it was a lot of fun! I made one small change though, I used large white trash bags instead of pillowcases. It worked out perfectly, thanks a bunch. I hope you and your family have a wonderful blessed new year!
What a great idea! Would love to see a picture if you have one!
I think I’m going to try these this Halloween. I never think I have enough decorations, and this would be neat to do with my daughter.
Halloween is really exciting.. Can’t wait to do this kind of stuff..
why not get se of the solar lights small ones then at night you got you goblin no wires or them stick that fade out the sun will energize thru the day
seems like my post went blank if it did sry but gonna say it again buy the small solar lights thru the day sun charges them so night time got your ghost and you don’t gotta worry bough electric lines or batteries if it rains so im gonna try that bet it will work great
I see at the bottom of the cages, they are on boards. How did you secure them? Can’t wait to try this!
Actually, I just have the boards there to hold it down. You can use stakes to hold them in place – I just didn’t have any.
