Materials You’ll Need
Before we delve into the designs, let’s gather the essentials:
- Black and orange craft paper
- Scissors and craft knives
- Adhesive tapes and glue
- Battery-operated LED lights
- Old clothes and fabrics
- Paints and brushes
With these basic materials, you can conjure up an array of ghoulish and delightful golf cart designs.
Ghostly Drapes
A simple yet effective way to give your golf cart a spooky makeover is by using white sheets or fabrics.
- How to do it: Drape the white sheets over the golf cart seats, securing them in place with tape or small weights. Cut out black craft paper eyes and mouth, and glue them onto the draped fabric. To add an eerie glow, place the battery-operated LED lights underneath.
Pumpkin-themed Golf Cart
Embrace the spirit of Halloween with a pumpkin-inspired golf cart.
- How to do it: Use the orange craft paper to cover the front of the golf cart, creating a pumpkin face. Black craft paper can be used for the eyes, nose, and jagged smile. You can also paint the wheels with green paint to resemble pumpkin vines.
Witch’s Ride
Transform your golf cart into a witch’s magical ride.
- How to do it: Place a broomstick across the cart’s front. Attach a pointed witch hat to the top of the cart, and drape some old fabrics to mimic the witch’s cloak. Don’t forget to create a witch’s face using craft paper or paint.
Haunted Graveyard
Turn your golf cart into a mini haunted graveyard.
- How to do it: Use old cardboard boxes to create tombstones. Paint them gray and write eerie names or phrases. Place these tombstones around the cart, and scatter some fake bones or skulls for added effect.
Spooky Spider Web
The classic spider web never goes out of Halloween style.
- How to do it: Use white yarn or string to create a web-like pattern across your golf cart. Attach small plastic spiders or even craft your spiders using black craft paper.
Mummy’s Chariot
Give your cart a mummified transformation.
- How to do it: Wrap the entire golf cart with white fabric strips, ensuring some areas are looser to give it an authentic mummified appearance. Use black craft paper to create eyes, making the mummy look alive.
Zombie Apocalypse
Zombies are a Halloween favorite. Why not integrate them into your golf cart decor?
- How to do it: Use old clothes to create zombie figures, stuffing them with newspapers or fabric scraps. Attach these figures around the cart. Paint fake blood stains or use red fabric to add to the eeriness.
Night Sky Magic
Bring the beauty of the Halloween night sky to your golf cart.
- How to do it: Paint the cart with dark blue or black. Stick glow-in-the-dark stars and moons. For added magic, add fairy lights or battery-operated LED string lights.
Vampire’s Lair
Turn your cart into a chilling vampire’s lair.
- How to do it: Create a vampire figure using old clothes and a cape. Attach a pair of fake fangs and red eyes. Place this figure on the driver’s seat, and add bats made from black craft paper around the cart.
Haunted Mansion
Bring the grandeur of a haunted mansion to your golf cart.
- How to do it: Paint or attach images of old windows and doors to the sides of the cart. Use fabric to create eerie curtains. Add some battery-operated candles to give it a dim, haunted glow.
