Halloween is coming!
And I am SO excited!
September 1 came around and I didn't care how hot that attic was!
I was getting out the Halloween!
So, I have had the thought for a while that I wanted to have a miniature tree with birds and some spooky headstones.
But have you seen the price on those positional trees, lately??
I can't stomach $30 or even half that with a coupon...
So, I decided I could grab some paper covered floral wire and make one.
And I think it turned out pretty great!
AND it only took half an hour!!
Yay! for me for doing it for $2.99!
Now I need to decide if it gets a coat of black paint and/or superfine black glitter....
Any suggestions?
Here it is with some little birds, headstones and piles of bones:
Now, I'm off to finish some more Halloween decorating!
Here's a sneak peak of what I am working on:

I think your tree turned out amazing. Kudos to you for saving all that money and ending up with something better than store-bought!
ReplyDeleteLove that spooky tree! I think it looks great as is but a coat of black paint might make it more Halloween-y. Great job.
ReplyDeleteThat's a great tree! Check you out! I sorta like it the way it is w/o paint, but I think it would look cool either way. Thanks for the great idea.
ReplyDeleteYour tree turned out great, perfect for halloween!
ReplyDeleteI knew you would be starting Halloween decorations already...lol. It came out awesome....I am anxious to see what else you come up with :) Have you started on costumes yet??
ReplyDeleteFirst time coming to your party! Thanks for the linky invite!
ReplyDeleteAllie, I love your blackbird centerpiece! The Halloween season goes by so fast; I'm definitely a proponent of getting it out as early as possible to thoroughly enjoy every moment of the wonderful fall decorating.

Allie I love your tree! It is so cute and creepy at the same time :) love Halloween! Thanks for the inspiration! I might be able to scrape up the supplies to make sometime like this!
