Step-by-Step: Easy DIY Bat Wall Decor for Halloween
-
Prep surface: Wipe cabinets/walls dry and dust-free.
-
Fold bats: Pinch wings to create a 3D curve.
-
Plan layout: Arrange on the counter first (large → small, flowing diagonally). Snap a quick reference photo.
-
Add adhesive: Place dots/putty/tape on the bat's body (not wings).
-
Stick & stagger: Start with the largest bats, then fill with medium/small to create a “flying” path.
-
Press & set: Hold each bat 5–10s for a good bond.
-
Style extras (optional): Add a pumpkin, fall sign, and flowers to finish the vignette.
-
Removal: Peel slowly from an edge; roll off adhesive and store bats flat for reuse.
Tips: Test adhesive in a hidden spot; avoid areas that get hot/steamy (right above the stove/hood).
