Directions
- Print out the bat template. If you don’t want your bat this big, use the first page which has a reference bat.
- I made my template a little bit bigger. Next, cut out your bat.
- Take your black paper and fold it diagonally.
- Place the bat template on the fold as shown in the above photo. I was able to get two bats on one piece of paper.
- Fold the wings where the template shows the dotted lines.
- Poke a small hole at the bottom of the bat.
- Cut a string the length you want the bat to hang.
- Thread the string through the hole and tie a knot.
- Hang the string with packaging tape to the ceiling of your porch.
