It's fall and you know what that means.... copious amounts of adorable Halloween crafts!! Halloween is MY FAVORITE holiday of the year! :) I love the costumes! The candy! The pumpkin carving! The magic! It's THE BEST.

Today's craft was inspired by this adorable Halloween paper chain that I saw on Easy Peasy Fun. It had a black cat, monster, and pumpkin all in one paper chain. Super cute and I fell in love. Definitely check Andreja's site out because she has A ZILLION cute + easy crafts for kids!



Materials Needed to Make these Paper Chains:



  • Scissors
  • Construction Paper (Orange, Black, Green, Yellow)
  • Glue stick
  • Marker (I always use Shapies because they're so dark, but you can use whatever kind you like!)
  • Stapler


Let's Make some Adorable Halloween Paper Chains:


1.  Cut your strips of paper, stems, and triangle hats. 

I folded a sheet of construction paper into 8 sections and just cut those out to create uniformly sized strips of paper.

2.  Glue and decorate!
