Hope everyone enjoyed Halloween. Here is my little candy helper. She would much rather help by eating the candy, but was happy enough seeing what was happening at the door. Josh and Noah both had friends over so we had 8 boys total. I made pizza to look like candy corn when sliced, mummy hot dogs, and a vegetable skeleton guy. We finished the meal with cider and cinnamon donuts from the cider mill.
Our front door opens up to the closet. The plain boring closet. I am not sure what the builder was thinking. Halloween morning I decided I better put together something so that when the door opened there would be something interesting to look at. This is what I quickly came up with.
I used my rummage sale plate, and some battery operated votive holders that I crafted up back in April. I just added a glittering spider sticker. I keep meaning to blog about them and will soon.
This pumpkin guy on a big crow is probably my favorite decoration.
The only new purchases I made for Halloween this year were the spider stickers and the black crow paper silhouettes.
This abracadabra sign took me about 2 minutes total to make. I used a empty frame that is only halfway through the painting process. If I remember right it used to be black and gold. I decided to try to keep some of the gold, and was actually thinking of painting over it, but now I think I may like it this way. A happy accident! I like the sign so much I'm going to make one for Thanksgiving, and then a different version for Christmas. I just have to choose my words.
I'm still going to post a few more photo's of our house with the Halloween decorations. There will also be a little peak at the hallway
Be back soon!
That sign is awesome! Can't wait to see what you make for the other holidays.
ReplyDeleteThat looks so fun and festive, Lynda! I love the little pumpkin guy sitting on the crow and your framed sign. Your helper is adorable! It sounds like your boys had a great Halloween!
ReplyDeleteHow cute is your dog? Your house is so homey and you are such a great mom! Can you believe Halloween got cancelled here due to a freak storm in October? Nuts. It's been rescheduled for this weekend. Unfortunately... the Reeses cups have been devoured by myself and Logan... ha ha! xo
