halloweeny craft night/decor

last week diana told me about a craft night she saw on instagram. yes, you read that right. i love craft nights, and i had a friend to go with. never mind the fact that neither of us knew the host. that's beside the point. it's social media at it's best. candace did such a great job putting it all together. she had 3 crafts for us to work on. it was such a fun night, and although showing up at a random person your friend knows through instagram only might sound weird. it really wasn't. it was lots of fun.

 i'm obsessed with this little witchy.

 the witches took a little longer than expected, but i didn't want to leave without at least starting the banner.

it's pretty hard to see the little witchy, but i wrapped a box in black polka dot tissue paper and set the witch on top. i finished the halloween banner. i was in a little hurry so stapled the banner together with colored staples.
most all of these decorations were from last year. i was so excited to get them out again.



i made this wreath quite a while ago and have been scared ever since. the thumb tacks fall out sometimes, and it's kind of heavy. i bought all the thumb tacks at the dollar store and the styrofoam wreath with a coupon. next time i think i would use some sort of glue so the thumb tacks don't come out.
i have one more halloween project to do, and then i'll be all done for this year.

  2. As much as I don't like Halloween, it's definitely way cute to decorate for! We went to Dollar Tree the other night for decorations and had a blast! Looks like such a fun night :)
