Halloween Mantel

Happy happy Monday! I don’t usually get excited about Mondays….But I couldn’t wait for today so I could show you my Halloween Mantel! I think I’m one of the last bloggers to get their mantel decorated for Halloween this year. Don’t get me wrong, I have been doing all sorts of Halloween crafts! I just didn’t get the mantel done….Until this weekend! Check it out…

Welcome to my Halloween Mantel for 2012! I had loads of fun with color, stripes, and polka dots! {seriously, can you ever go wrong with those? haha} I did several small Halloween crafts for it. {tutorials tomorrow, so stay tuned!}

You may recognize a couple Halloween crafts from last year….Halloween fabric banner and 2×4 Mummies. And a couple of this year’s Halloween Crafts….Green DIY Apothecary Jar, Apothecary Jars with custom labels. and Boo bucket. I used my Silhouette Cameo to make several of these items.

glitter pumpkin

I whipped out a simple polka dot glitter pumpkin {that’s one of the tutorials on the agenda for tomorrow} Put it on a pedestal candle stick and layer a pumpkin on top. perfect.

chalkboard skull

Love chalkboard! So I added some chalkboard paint to a paper mache skull for a fun skull craft.

This adorable Halloween rag banner was from last year. I love all the colors and different fun fabrics in it. It has both the polka dots and the stripes in it, so it complimented my Halloween Mantel very nicely.
