Halloween Decorations and Crafts

Halloween 2013

Halloween 2012

I got some old hardback Reader's Digest books from my grandmother, painted them black and then made some Potion and Spells book titles using scrapbook paper and then sticking them on the ends with mod-podge.

I painted some wine/glass bottles black and then stuck on some pre-made labels

that I found at Michael's.

I put different kind of candy in each one and then put them on an end table for others to eat!

Trace or buy bat shapes, tape them to the inside of a lamp shade and look what you get!

Just a little something for the top of the fridge!

In a black vase, I put white roses and flowers and hot glued some snakes and spiders(that I painted black)!

EEEWWW!

I bought a black, cheap lamp shade on super clearance at Hobby Lobby, when you turn it on, the inside cheetah print lights up(cheetah- go girl),I put black foam on the inside of the shade, attached some fringe stuff, then created a belt to resemble a witch's hat.

The Halloween Subway Art is one I found on Pinterest,

I used black vinyl and my Silhouette Cameo and cut out spiders
to stick on the fridge! Kind of fun!

Made this frame with a bunch of googly eyes, spray painted "EEEKK" with purple glitter and sprayed it with clear acrylic to keep the glitter from falling off.

I used a download on Pinterest to create a "topper" to put on a Halloween treat.
I made it 3 days before Halloween and sent it to school with the boys for their teachers.
When we had Dustin's birthday party and made the mix again and it became stale QUICK!
So... I am thinking the teachers got a stale treat! UUUGGG, I tried!

I made a few of these little candle mummies! Just mod-podge, gauze and googly eyes!
EASY and FAST! (My kind of project)

I found a pair of black heels at Goodwill and stuffed some pool noodles in some tights to make witch legs.

Then, I painted a board orange, then used vinyl and my Silhouette Cameo and made letters. I stuck them to the board, then painted over it black, peeled off the letters and I have orange letters left! YAY!
