As children, you have probably heard of a ghost with bulging eyes who roams the city streets. Bring back that demonical spirit by creating a unique door decoration with red yarn and white plate. Both these items can be put back to regular use. You donโ€™t need to spend much for this decoration. Cut paper films and color them to resemble iris of a scary and bloody eye. Then stick the paper on the pack of the white plate. Stick the plate on the door with transparent tape. Tape the red yarn around it as if it is the bloody vein of the scary eye.
