I love Pinterest! Love. Love. Love. However, I do not like have my boards brimming full and me never doing any of the projects, so I am constantly deleting and updating my Pinterest boards.
Here is a project I recently finished for Halloween (I know. I know. Summer isn't all the way over yet.)
You can check out my inspiration website here.
- I painted all the blocks their base colors and then painted on most of their accessories like Frankenstein's scar, the pumpkin's mouth, and the witches black bottom.
- I used large google eyes for all of them for uniformity (trust me, the pumpkin looked weird and out of place with triangle eyes).
- My hubby drilled holes and screwed in bolts.
- I used jute for the witch's hair, glued a ribbon around her middle, and used a button for her buckle.
- The mummy is wrapped in tule. I wanted to use gauze, but ever the pragmatic one, my hubby thought that was an expensive choice. My tule was ultra thin and about 4 inches thin. I twisted the tule to double up the thickness and wrapped it kind of tight. So now you can see that it is, in fact, a mummy with its texture and my cleverness.
What holiday(s) do you like to decorate for?
