Getting Ready for Halloween

I picked up a bunch of extra days at work so it has been pretty quiet around my house lately.  I did do a little decorating for the upcoming holiday.

Have I told you how much I love Halloween? 

It's just fun.  No gift buying.  No big dinner.  No family drama.  And it's a major bonus seeing the kids in their costumes.  I

I came across a few pins that showed window silhouettes like this one. 





I figured I could do one on my own. 

So I headed off to the local Walmart and picked up black posterboard, Scotch tape, an X-acto knife, and a cheap plastic tablecloth. 

I drew my designs (which I copied from a few Google images) on the poster board and cut them out.  I taped them to the window and then covered the window with the orange tablecloth. 

Here's my final product. 





I may add to the witch window and haunted house window.  It just seems to need a bit more.  I love how the tree turned out.  It took an entire evening but was worth it in the end.

I'll be back next week with my review of Plain Truth.
