*Happy Halloween*

Trick or Treat!

Well here I am again with some more of my Halloween Decorations!

♥

I made this little sign above just simply by using a plain wooden frame like the ones from Ikea, I took a piece of plain calico which I soaked in tea & then dried in the oven on a low temp. I then pencilled out my words & then simply sitched over them with black thread. I finished it with some jute twine to hang it, which I glued to the back.

This is my cute Halloween Bat that I made.
I drew my own bat on paper then drew around this on to plain calico.
I then made up the bat, filling it & stiched it up.
I painted it with black paint & dried it, then once dry & grubbied it up by sanding it, this sounds little odd but the paint on the calico goes quite hard.
I stitched 2 red beads on for eyes, added a bit of thread for hanging & they we have him!

These Witches Boots &Hat were made in the same way to the bat above.

With the added extras of tea stained calico, a bit of raffia & the safety pins & bells for the toes!

This is just a simple sign I made which sits on the fireplace.

These are my wonderful pumpkin plates that I have.
3 small ones & a large one.

The large one is perfect for popping sweeties on for when the trick & treaters come!

An old ghosty book of James' from when he was little!

Tell your friends,

"When I go spooking,

I sometimes need a helper,

I have a good one.

My helper is a very small ghost.

His name is Willie.

Do you want to meet him?"
