Our Hairy Monster is bright orange but you can, of course, make them in any colour you like. We love our little monster so much that we’e got plans to make a whole rainbow of paper cup monsters. We’ll be dotting them all around our house and garden on Halloween. I think they’ll give our trick and treaters a smile.
