How to Cut Eyeholes in a Sheet for a Ghost Costume

Hi, my name is Matt Cail and on behalf of Expert Village, I'm here today to tell you how to make yourself up as a not so friendly ghost. Okay, now it's time to have your volunteer take the sheet off of themselves. As they do so, be a pal and help them out of the sheet and grab it, take it in your right arm or left arm if you prefer and drape over the eyes so the circular areas you drew in are exposed. Next we're going to need to cut these eye holes out so we'll be able to see through them. There are 2 ways to doing this. The first is with a pair of scissors and the other is with a razor blade. I prefer scissors, but each of her own, they both work. With a razor you're going to want to make slightly sawing motions around in a circle. Make the area you cut out bigger than the actual circles. You want to make sure that the person can see and we're going to be concealing the areas that are exposed with makeup anyway later on. With the scissors, it's slightly different. You're going to want to press in with the tip until the fabric starts to give way. At that point, you're slowly going to start opening the scissors in motion and slowly but surely start working your way around the edges.
