16. Mummy-Wrapped Classroom Cabinets
Transform your standard, utilitarian classroom storage cabinets into giant, slumbering mummies with this simple and highly effective decoration. Wrap the entire exterior of your cabinets in wide strips of white crepe paper streamer, white gauze, or butcher paper, overlapping the layers at various angles to mimic ancient linen bandages. Leave a small horizontal gap near the top of the cabinets to peek through, and place a pair of large, bright paper eyes staring out from the darkness.
This project is incredibly quick to assemble, uses very inexpensive materials, and completely hides cluttered storage shelves behind a clean, festive, and thematic facade. The mummy cabinets add a massive block of holiday character to the room, turning a boring storage area into an exciting, playful part of the Halloween landscape that students will love interacting with.
