Nightmare Before Christmas

Paintings:
Nightmare Before Christmas is one of my favorite movies. I hand painted a few of my favorite images from the move and framed them in 12 x 12 scrapbook frames.

Horror Frames

Horror Frames:
I love the old Horror Film posters. I found my favorites on Google image and printed them out in black and white and then put them in a sheet protector. I then painted some wooden frames I bought from Micheals for $0.60 each and placed the picture in!

Halloween Tree

Halloween Tree:
There are several different versions of Halloween Trees around, mine cost me only $3! I purchased a trick-or-treat bucket at Wal-Mart for $2, skeleton figures and spider ring pack for $1, and took limbs from my yard! I spray painted the limbs black and placed them in the bucket and then took silver ribbon to hang the skeletons and placed the spider rings to decorate!

Potion Bottles

Halloween is my favorite holiday! I love all of the decorations and would go broke if I bought everything I came across. I decided to make several pieces myself for little to no cost! Here are a few of my recent projects! Enjoy!

 

Potion Bottles:

These can be very pricy for what you get in the stores. I saved 30 beer bottles from one weekend's football  party! I soaked them in warm water over night to remove the labels. I painted them white, black, and grey then created labels in publisher and mode podge them onto the bottles. I finished the look with corks purchased from Micheals. The corks came in a pack of 20 for $4. I was able to cut them in two and had just enough for my project!

Georgia Ribbon Wreath

I made this Wreath for a friend’s birthday a few days ago. Her and her hubs are HUGE GA fans, but they didn’t have a GA Wreath, well they do now! I purchased a Styrofoam white wreath and tide 4 inch strips of tulle in knots around the whole thing. I bought a piece of craft wood and hand painted the G.

Wine Bottle Lamp

My husband and got married in 2009. For our First Christmas I decided that I would make Wine Bottle Lamps for our parents for one of their gifts. We had several bottles of wine left over from our wedding, so as the hubs and I finished a bottle I would wash it out and let it air dry for at least two days. I bought a two foot strand of LED Christmas lights and ran them into the bottle. I topped the bottle with a small lamp shade for a final touch. Needless to say they loved them, I think more due to the sentimental value of it J
