Each panel measures 2.49 x 6.0 ft (about 30 x 72 in) and comes in black, white and purple, so you can layer the three together or hang them separately across doors, porches, trees and mantels.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1027\/6090\/7101\/files\/78497531d71249dabcfb7253350f9c86-goods.jpg?v=1790613858\" alt=\"3-pack Halloween creepy cloth cheesecloth in black, white and purple\"\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3 panels per pack, one each in black, white and purple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEach panel measures 2.49 x 6.0 ft (about 30 x 72 in)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100% polyester open-weave mesh\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTears and shapes easily by hand, no sewing or cutting tools required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReusable each October when stored flat or loosely rolled\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1027\/6090\/7101\/files\/1e338bbb38b44efaba9dc17a0f224b02-goods.jpg?v=1790613859\" alt=\"Halloween creepy cloth draped over a doorway for a cobweb effect\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Drape It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnroll a panel and pull gently on the weave to loosen and stretch it before hanging; this opens up the mesh and gives it the wispy, cobweb look most shoppers are after. Drape it over porch railings, stair banisters, tree branches or a doorway frame, and tack or tape the corners down so it holds its shape in the wind. Because the fabric tears by hand along the weave, you can also rip strips off to wrap around stakes, wreaths or lanterns without needing scissors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eLayering the Three Colors\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach pack includes one black, one white and one purple panel, and most of the effect comes from layering them rather than using a single color alone. Hang the white layer closest to the surface for a base haze, then drape the black and purple panels over it with the edges offset so the colors show through each other. A single panel works too for a smaller accent, like wrapping a lantern or a porch post.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMaking Cheesecloth Ghosts\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe white panel is the one most people reach for when building a hanging cheesecloth ghost. Drape it over a balloon, a foam head on a stake or a bent wire frame, then shape the folds while it hangs so the figure gets its silhouette. This is polyester rather than cotton, so it drapes loosely and holds a soft shape but will not stiffen on its own. If you want the ghost to keep its form once the mold comes out, a fabric stiffener or spray starch is worth having on hand; neither is included in the pack. The black and purple panels work the same way for a darker figure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eItem form: Bundles (3 loose fabric panels)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePanel size: 2.49 x 6.0 ft (about 30 x 72 in) each\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePack contents: 1 black, 1 white, 1 purple panel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComposition: 100% polyester\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePattern: Solid, open-weave mesh\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCare: Do not wash, bleach, tumble dry, iron, or dry clean\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere to Use It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis cheesecloth works well on a front porch, along a fence line, over a mantel, draped across a party table, or bunched into a photo backdrop. Because it's lightweight, it also layers easily over string lights or a projector beam for a hazy, atmospheric effect. Keep it away from open flames or heat sources since it isn't rated as flame-resistant.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eQuestions Shoppers Ask\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow big is each panel?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach of the three panels measures 2.49 x 6.0 ft, about 30 by 72 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this the same thing as creepy cloth?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. Creepy cloth, spooky cloth and Halloween cheesecloth all describe this kind of open-weave gauze panel.

Since it's polyester, it drapes well but needs a fabric stiffener or spray starch if you want the ghost to hold its shape after the mold comes out.
