Bats & Spiders oh my.....

Hello and Happy Monday Everyone! Whew! What a crazy week and

weekend! I thought when it started to get cold outside that it would

slow down at the store a little (Donation wise) but NOOOOO! I get

buried every week! It's good but also bad... cuz I work more hours and

no time to craft! :o( Any whoo.... I'm here right now so I thought I would

show you something I made to decorate my Thrift Store with! :o)

 

 

Last year I put up those "GEL" holiday decorations...

Well... Let me tell ya.... they SUCK! Really!

I went to put them up this year and they are gooey.... YUCK

And some little boy tried to eat one! UGH! Soooo

Down they came and I went to Hobby Lobby and picked up

these crafty wood pieces.... they were $3.99 each but then they

had 40% off all the holiday stuff! SCORE! :o)

 

 

So, here I proceeded to paint them.... Different colors to

kind of match the paper I was gonna use on one side....

I also added some Glimmer Mist in a similar color to

add glitter to the side that was plain....

 

Here's the first one.... I did add RED Gems for the eyes....

And another... using the ribbon it already came with!

Here's a cool Bat too..... added red gems to the eyes

on both sides of course.... since they will hang in

the windows at my store..... you'll get a different look

which ever side is showing inside or out! :o)

Some fun zig zag paper from Echo Park!

 

And the last one.... I really like how they all turned out!

And I can use these year after year and not have to worry

about them being gooey or a kid eating them! LOL

I made a banner too! I forgot to take a picture of it.... maybe this

week I'll take a picture through the window! :o)

 

Thanks so much for stopping by! Have an

AWESOME DAY!!!!
