UPDATE: Halloween C.R.A.F.T. #3: Front Porch

Oct 19 posted by
HERE is the earlier post about my Halloween inspired front porch…
I’ve added my first attempt at a WREATH
which is really just a mirror with a paper ghost! 



Materials: scrap of white paper, pen, mirror, tape, wreath hanger, spray paint

[I found this mirror at Target 70% off for $6, I bought as part of my living room transformation, but until that happens it has a home on the front door!]

INSPIRATION: I’m sure you have seen this mirror at Martha Stewart
Very simple project… I cut out a ghost shape from a scarp piece of paper and taped it onto the mirror, I spray painted a wreath hanger gray, and hung it up! In my opinion, the mirror is a little small and a little high…but hey, nobody’s perfect :)

and, on more thing… I decided on no pot, BUT, i added a stump! [I liked the idea of turning the pot right side up and using straw under the pumpkin...but that meant buying stuff :) ] 
The BF and I have made working out a new priority, and while I’m not a huge fan of running…if I found stumps like this every time we ran…I might like it better!

 


I’m pretty happy about my stump :)

    A beautiful stump! and such a simple but effective idea with the mirror. I work at a costume shop but still have not decorated my home >_

    Love the stump idea, it brings the pumpkin to a great height, and adds a more weight to it all. looooove it!

    I love your stump! I used to have a gnarly, stubby, fat stump for an end table many moons ago. Maybe I need to find another one considering how much I like your porch stump.

    i think you just like to say stump. no, really, it looks great. the whole porch is super cute, and i love that the ghost is upside down, just hanging out!
