How to Make Cheesecloth Ghosts

In the video below I dunk cheesecloth into a mixture of flour and water and lay it out on bottles to dry overnight.  The next day the cheesecloth had a stiff ghost like appearance, and we decorated the ghosts with faces.  I hung the ghosts out on our front porch to get ready for Halloween.

Below is a video on how I hang my holiday lights on my steel siding with magnets.

The magnets are rare earth magnets with a hole like the ones found in this link to amazon.  I have also found them searching ebay for “rare earth magnet with hole”.
