Bat Chandelier

Remember the butterfly chandelier that we showed last week on KSL?  We are excited that the butterfly punches are now in, so you can recreate it with ease.  Also, here is a spooky bonus kit just in time for the upcoming Halloween season.  You can easily make this project using the EK Success Bat punch (available at our stores for $14.99) Or, you could make a little variation using the bat die-cut that we have for use in our stores.  Instructions are below.
Ingredients:
Black Cardstock
Bat punch or die-cut
Black Beads
Fishing Line
3 embroidery hoops (we used 14", 10" and 6")
Black Paint
Tulle
Glue Dots

Instructions:
Cut or punch 40 bats from black cardstock.
Run a 15" piece of fishing line through a black bead and tie in a knot in center of line.
Fold line in half and secure two bats together with line between using a glue dot.
Fold bat wings outward to create dimension.
Tie fishing line with bats to each embroidery hoop.
Tie hoops together with 4 pieces of tulle.
Tie tulle at top for hanging.
