Giant Skeleton Crafted Using Cricut Maker Tool Measures 41 Inches
Ready to create a spooktacular centrepiece for your Halloween party? This DIY project will guide you through assembling a 41-inch tall skeleton using a Cricut Maker and Kraft Board. Here's what you'll need:
- Cricut Cutting Machine
- MakerX Crafting Tools
- Fiskars Paper Trimmer
- Scotch Precision Scissors
- Kraft Board (4 sheets of Natural Kraft Board and 4 sheets of White Kraft Board)
- Tacky glue or hot glue (for adhesive)
- Brad fasteners (14)
- Hole punch
- StandardGrip Mat
- Weeding Tools
Cutting the Skeleton Pieces
First, use your Cricut Maker to cut the skeleton pieces precisely from the Kraft Board. Utilize the design files for each skeleton part, sized appropriately, to achieve the 41-inch height. After cutting, carefully detach the pieces from the board.
Assembling the Skeleton
Assemble the skeleton by arranging and connecting the parts—such as the skull, ribs, arms, legs, and pelvis—in the correct anatomical order. Use a strong adhesive suitable for Kraft Board, like tacky glue or hot glue, to join the pieces firmly. For stability, consider reinforcing joints with small brads, brads, or cut slots/tabs if your design includes them. You can also use lightweight foam or cardboard spacers between layers if a 3D effect or added sturdiness is desired.
Mounting or Displaying the Skeleton
Attach a backing support or a stand at the rear for mounting or free-standing display. Lightweight wood dowels or a sturdy cardboard easel folded at the back can help hold the skeleton upright for your Halloween party decor.
Assembly Tips
- Cut slowly and carefully to avoid breaking delicate parts.
- Score fold lines if needed for dimensional effects.
- Paint or decorate the skeleton after assembly for a polished look.

With these steps, you'll soon have a 41-inch tall, movable skeleton that's sure to impress at your Halloween party! Happy crafting!
