It’s a pink Halloween with this Dollar Tree BOO Ghost decor made with a gorgeous floral skull napkin! Three different wood ghosts make for an adorable and creepy-cute, yet budget friendly Halloween DIY!
I love crafting and decorating for every holiday, and Halloween is no exception.
But when I craft, I love to be different and thats exactly what this Dollar Tree PINK Boo Ghost is…….different and pink! Although pink certainly is becoming increasingly popular for Halloween these days.
A few years ago I did an entirely Rainbow Halloween and boy was that a fun one.
My favorites were the Dollar Tree Rainbow Skeleton, and Rainbow ghost with Boo banner. But I loved EVERYTHING I made that year as well.
See that gorgeous floral skull napkin on the exclamation point? That was one of the napkins from my Big Pack of Craftkins napkin subscription!

How to Make a Make a Dollar Tree Pink BOO Ghost
I made this Halloween BOO Ghost on video. So you can WATCH the tutorial by clicking below.
So let me show you how to make this cutie! I started with the Dollar Tree Wood Ghosts (3 different sized ones), a napkin from my Big pack of Craftkins, some bakers twine and the Dollar Tree “Boo” cutouts.
First, I removed the wood base off of the larger ghost.
Then painted it white, along with all 3 wood ghosts.
Next, I distressed all the outer edges of each ghost with my Tim Holtz Ink, by rubbing it onto the edges lightly.
The small ghost didn’t have cutout eyes, so I drew them on with black Sharpie.
I separated the napkin down to one ply, and I decoupaged a piece of it onto the wood base. Then I sanded the excess napkin off with my gator sander.
Heres the wood base all covered with the pretty napkin.
For the “BOO!”, I painted the exclamation point white, and then Mod Podged a piece of the napkin on top and sanded the excess napkin off.
And then painted the rest of the “BOO!” pink to coordinate with the flowers in the napkin.
Next I started gluing everything together. I started by gluing the large ghost into the base like it originally came.
And then glued the BOO! to the front of the base.
I thought that the pink BOO! needed a little somethin’ somethin’, so I added tiny white polka dots all around the edges using the end of a paint brush.
I made tiny bakers twine shoestring bows for the ghosts head and neck, one black and 2 pink bows.
Next, I glued the medium size ghost to the back of the larger ghost, so that it looks like its peeking out from behind its right shoulder (do ghosts have shoulders?).
Then I glued the small ghost to the front of the letter B.
The large and medium ghosts had eyes cut out, but I wanted them black, so I glued a pieced of sparkly black scrapbook paper behind them.
For the finishing touch, I added a small black and white bakers twine shoestring bow as a “bow tie” for the larger ghost.
Oh.EM.GEE. I just love how this turned out! Here are some pics of her all done!
So cute for a pink Halloween theme.
There is also an adorable Rainbow Ghost with a BOO Banner that we made in my subscription group, The CRafterparty! It would look so cute with this Dollar Tree Pink BOO Ghost.
