Woo Hoo! I finally finished my Halloween wreath.
First I wraped the entire wreath with black glittery ribbon. Then for the sign I used some cardboard. I cut it to make it look all ragged. Then I finger painted the edges brown and black to make it look burnt. I also painted the Happy Halloween and spiderwebs. Next I glued the black spider bugs on the bottom right hand corner. Then I added the glitter bat stickers. Finally I added the Altmans in blood red. I attached the sign by using a hole cutter to poke holes in the top corners. Then Iused black ribbon to tie the sign to the wreath. For the flowers I really wanted black roses but didn't have any and they are kinda expensive. So I took some old red roses that I've had for a while and I painted some completely black. The others I just painted the edges black. then I glue black glitter to the edges.
I also added lots of spiders and spiderwebs as well as skull heads.
and ofcourse the black crow. I just love him. Here are some other pictures of our front porch.
We will ofcourse add more stuff as Halloween gets closer. A scarecrow, a couple of pumpkins, who knows what we'll think of.
