Halloween Crafts
15So unfortunately I wasn’t able to join in on the monsterification challenge, but I have made some Halloween crafts and wanted to share.
I made a couple of wreaths out of mostly Dollar Tree items.
I took their circle wreath form and cut out a section so I could make a crescent moon shape. Duct taped the ends and wrapped the whole thing in mesh. Poked some flowers through and then added a skeleton that I bought at Michael’s a year or two ago. I bought another bunch of the same flowers to add more, but haven’t done that yet. (The red thing is just a wreath hanger. My front door has a nail so you don’t see that.)
I made a second one with just a general witchy vibe. I had some little acrylic mirror pieces that I stuck together on some thread. Also added battery operated lights. I will add those to my other one.
I really wanted to make some with black mesh, but dollar tree was sold out and I’m too cheap to buy any from the craft stores. I’ll probably make a new one next year. I gave the witchy one away.

I have only made one wreath this year, and it’s kind of boring, but still cute, I guess. Sparkle spooders!
@Pony Not boring - very cool!
@Kyeh Aw, thanks!
@Pony I like it!
@sammydog01 Thanks! I think I’m going to add some spiderweb stuff to it, that might make it a little more interesting.
@Pony love it! The addition of some spider web will look great.
Those are totally cute! I am in love with the skeleton one.
@Pony thank you!
I have not made wreaths yet… but have been thinking about it… I really like this
@Koolhandjoe thank you!
@RiotDemon I will be heading to the dollar store and stealing this idea.
@sammydog01 I totally want too do that too. I’m a craft vulture. lolz
@Pony @sammydog01 please share! I stole the idea from the internet, so pass it along!
Those are really cool! Hubby wants to have Halloween party this weekend! Thanks for the ideas! I had better get my craft brain working!
@lc1976 if you make one, please share!
Wait, what day is it? October 30th? Well shit, time to throw some stuff together. Expectations lowered.

I have a friend over and we each made one. The purple has glow in the dark and the skeleton glows. My kitchen and our clothes are covered in glitter.
@sammydog01 so cute!!! Nice work!
Love the wreaths.
