[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 459669, member: 1233"] I wouldn't use sugar water on the cheesecloth ghosts. It can be a major bug attractant and if you get rain then it is sticky to clean up. either use the old fashioned laundry starch or corn starch and water to stiffen them. If you want to store them to use another year, mix elmers white glue - again NOT school glue because it is totally useless for anything esp crafts- and water in equal amounts or go a little heavy on the water. It will dry and you can keep them for years where if you use sugar or starch the bugs and mice will adore them. You COULD buy commercial stuff to stiffen them up in the craft glue section of the craft store, but it is an added cost that you can avoid. As for the stuffing from the fabric store? I haven't had great luck with it, but that could just be me. [/QUOTE]
