It's a Halloween Party!

Kimba at A Soft Place to Land is having a Halloween Party!
I don't have a lot of Halloween Decor, but I'll share what I do have.

I made this Halloween ragamuffin over the weekend. I got the idea at Sanctuary Arts at Home.
You can kind of see one of my little spiders hanging down in this picture.

I picked up some Halloween garland at Family Dollar a few weeks ago. I love the little purple bats on it. I also twisted some Halloween lights in before hanging it up.
Here's the view from the outside. This is the best picture I got and it's still pretty blurry & is at a really bad angle. That's a purple spider hanging on the window.
I tried my hand at Joy's Halloween project. I used some cute Halloween paper with little sayings like - trick or treat, boo, eek, fright, candy, ghosts, etc. Only problem is that the words are orange on orange paper so from a distance it just looks like I used plain orange paper. I think it needs some to jazz it up a bit but this is how it looks for now.

I have one more Halloween project planned, but I need to find a small branch before I can complete it. I'll be sure to show ya all when it's done. Don't forget to check out Kimba's party!

I like your BOO! I can't tell the Letters are orange. They look black to me. My hubby so isn't into the whole Halloween thing. Kinda takes the air outa decorating for it and all.

Cute stuff! If you want to get a board for that craft, you can get them at Home depot, just pick the board and the size and they'll cut the length you want and just charge you per inch. Good Luck
