Crows and Bats

StiltbeastStudios walks through a straightforward, low-cost method for fabricating decorative crow and bat props suitable for haunted houses or yard haunts. A downloadable bird silhouette pattern is used as a template, and a foam underlayment material serves as the primary build medium. The result is a lightweight, easily reproducible prop that can be massed for dramatic effect without breaking the budget.
