These are two tried and true Halloween projects. While neither is exactly a novel idea, they are both simple and inexpensive.
First, I took advantage of a half off sale on Halloween decor and purchased two faux pumpkins. I used a foam paint brush to cover each pumpkin in craft glue that I diluted with a little water and then doused them in fine green and orange glitter. Since the pumpkins are not specifically for Halloween, I plan to continue to decorate with them throughout the end of November.
Second, I used scraps of muslin to cover lollipops for trick-or-treaters. I used some string to secure the fabric and a black marker to draw ghostly faces. Now it is time to hand out candy and enjoy the parade of costumes at our front door.
Happy Halloween!
The projects are cute, but I can’t help but admire the tray holding the pumpkins and the bowl holding the lollipops. Is there a great story behind those too???
Love those ghosts. We’re going to trick or treat at your house next year.
What I want to know is, what’s in the glass??? Yuk yuk
