Bows & Boos Garland Tutorial

Looking for a spooky and sweet project that’s equal parts adorable and festive? Our Bows & Boos Garland combines charming felt bows with playful little felt ghosts! Perfect for decorating mantels, doorways, or your Halloween party table.

Follow along with this easy step-by-step guide to create your own!

👻 Step 1: Prep Your Felt Pieces

Cut out your felt bows and ghost shapes.

We used a paper stencil to cut out ghost shapes!

We also cut small black circles for their eyes! We used a small dot of hot glue to attach them. 

Then we did the same thing with little satin bows!

And then cut an inch wide strip of felt to create our bows.

We then folded the felt strip into a bow!

🎀 Step 2: Arrange Your Layout

Lay your ribbon flat on a table (we used black satin for an extra Halloween look). Position bows and ghosts in alternating order — about 4–6 inches apart. This helps balance the garland and keeps it looking full without being overcrowded. We added little knots where each will go! 

And you're all done!
