11. Cardboard Bat Chandelier
Suspend a colony of swarming bats from your ceiling with a gorgeous, minimalist cardboard bat chandelier that sways gently in the breeze. Cut out a large cardboard ring to serve as the base of the chandelier, painting it matte black. Next, cut out dozens of bats in various sizes from black cardboard or cardstock, gently folding their wings to give them a realistic, flying shape. Use clear fishing line of varying lengths to hang the bats from the central ring, creating a spiraling, dynamic swarm effect. Hang the completed chandelier over your dining table or in your entryway for a stunning, dramatic visual statement.
