Mini Mr. Paper Bones

Our mini Mr. Paper Bones is possibly the cutest little skeleton we ever did see! At just 5.5″ tall our teeny paper skeleton is the perfect little decoration for your Halloween celebrations. These little guys (or girls) have so much personality and add that little bit of fun to your seasonal decor. You could even craft them as a fun surprise for your kids’ lunches by sticking them in a spooky paper coffin treat box with some candies or chocolates.

Small Skeletons
If you have a cutting machine, you can use the SVG file below to cut our Mr. Paper Bones skeleton. If you want to cut by hand, simply download the PDF and print the templates onto your white card stock. The details are in black so you will only have to trim the outer edges.
We used white card stock and mini antique metal brads to make our Mr. Paper Bones and black card stock to make his coffin. But we think he’d also look great in white glitter card stock or a metallic paper. For more DIY holiday projects head over to our Halloween crafts category — see you there! ~ Lia

Hi, Lia! I just received my Cricut on Monday, so I’ve been jumping in with both feet – and a little overwhelmed. When I saw this adorable skeleton – and he simply involves cutting – I was pleased that I could do it! I’m meeting some friends for coffee and I can’t wait to give each one of them a skeleton that I made with my Cricut. Some of them have Cricuts, but they never took it out of the box. Not me! Thanks for all of your beautiful projects. I’m excited about all of the crafting fun I’m going to have!
Am I able to use the SVG cut file for my cricut explore? I want to make these for all the ladies at work and know I will give up after the first one I cut by hand:)
You can upload any SVG cutting file into Design Space and create to your heart’s content!
THANK YOU VERY MUCH I LOVE IT ALL JUDY
You are sweetheart, thank you!
this is great! 🙂
So happy you like it. 😉
Oh my heavens, so durned adorable, hope can get blasted printer hooked up so I print out bunches of projects. Need things to keep my hands busy, no snacking. Thanks for sharing this, can hardly wait for coffin. Will go shopping for some nice glittery papers to make skeletons with and black for coffins.
Happy weekend
That little girl is just so pretty and that hair, oh my. Lucky Momma.
Share photos of your glittery bones! 😉
