Halloween is fun, but not into creepy or gory at all! Scary movies...ah no! Not for me either! A touch of Halloween around the house is fun though. Our decor is minimal and more fall, cutesy, kid friendly, except for this new one.
I've kinda had a thing for skulls for quite some time now and really starting to like crows. (My dark side lol!) This is the extent of our "scary" decor.
All items are from the Dollar Tree, including a vase, cool crow, bag of skulls and moss.
Throw in a bit of hot glue and you have yourself a cool new Halloween decoration! Glue moss to rim of vase, glue on the crow, glue on the skull, then drop all other skulls into the vase. All done!
Thanks for sharing your project. I'm not a big Halloween decorator either, but I have a friend who is over the top. I think that this would be a neat gift idea for her. Thank you for stopping by my post. Come visit any time. Cherry Kay
ReplyDeleteI like your Halloween idea! It turned out great and it is inexpensive. Thanks for sharing your project :)
ReplyDeleteI have a vase that looks very similar! Pottery Barn does the best Halloween decorations and lucky for us we can recreate them for a fraction of the cost!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is so wicked cool! haha, love the frugalness of it too:)

ReplyDeleteVery cool Dollar Store finds and craft too. Thank you for sharing it.
