To start, you’ll need to grab two baskets from the Dollar Tree, a few zip ties, spray paint (preferably black), a chain from the Halloween store and of course, a skeleton.

Spray paint the two baskets black or if you’re lucky enough to find two black baskets, you can skip this part!

Next, you’ll want to place your skeleton inside the two baskets either sitting down, with one arm hanging out from one side or maybe a foot dangling at the bottom.
