I keep forgetting to post pictures of my mantle all decorated for Halloween!
Here is my before picture.....
Here is the after.....
I found some old frames and an old picture of my Great great great great Uncle Ernesto and put him behind a frame. I'm just kidding, he isn't my Uncle, but I'm sure he was someone's. I then found some old flash cards the ones that say "There were and After them" and made the "Ghosts" one out of paper and scrapbook stickers. I burned the edges and aged it a little. I figured since Ernesto has passed I could pretend he was the ghost after us!
I then draped moss around the mantle and over the frames. My girlfriend gave me the creepy hands which she got from Grandin Road Catalog and I hung them and set a few spiders on and in the palm.
I wish you could see the candles lit at night. They really set the mood!
Hope you are all having a great Thursday!
Enjoy whatever your day brings!
