Halloween Silhouettes

Last year I wanted the Martha Stewart witch silhouette, but of course Michaels was sold out as well as her online store. As I started thinking about it, I realized that I probably could cut my own out of black cardstock. So I pulled up the image on Martha’s site to follow and cut away. I was excited about how she turned out. I was even more excited when I realized that mine was actually LARGER than the store’s version.

Yesterday I was getting out a few more decorations to put up and found my witch. I thought that it would be fun to add another one to the window this year. I went to my artist Jacob with a request and reimbursement for his time. I was thrilled at what he made. I find him quite amazing because he pulled his idea out of his head whereas I had to follow someone else’s image. Here is our dining room’s window scene. It is fun because it’s right by our witch’s shelf.

Then this afternoon Ashley and I did a little bat project with her hands to add to our decor. She kinda got carried away with the glue. I’m thinking that it would be fun to do something about hands tonight for FHE and have everyone’s hands made into bats on our door.

I’m also thinking of leaving all of this Halloween decor up for the year. It’s just too fun!!!
