hAlLoWeEn is cReEpInG up its just around the corner....

I love Halloween..I love all the decorations and seeing the creativity of the kids and their costumes....we started thinking about making decorations for this most wondrous night....in August....Ripley and I headed out on an adventure one beautiful Saturday morning with a list containing items such as wood turnings, candle sticks, candle holders and knobs/finials....anything really with a nice shape...Ripley is awesome at finding little treasures...she is awesome to take on a treasure hunt. it is like she knew exactly what I had in mind... after a few hours we had all that we needed to get started on our alchemy scene...BWHahahaha! oH!! and we headed to Home Depot for a can of flat black spray paint.... almost everything was painted flat black a couple of pieces were painted with a satin finish for a little variety....we started to put everything on display last Sunday...I could not wait for Thanksgiving to be over....                                          
We had so much fun finding all the pieces and painting them and coming up with the best labels to put on the jars I think the best part finding just the right candies to fill the jars with...lol most of the candy was gone by the time I took the pictures...lol  Darn Kids ; )  



Back later this week to share some more home made Halloween decorations
Back to chat soon,
Sherry
