Halloween Decor - 4,5,6/10 - In Black and White

 
In putting together this spooky display, I managed to complete three different thrifty and quick Halloween projects in the process!!
 


First is the dapper skeleton.  He was a find on Graphics Fairy, printed off on the page of an old dictionary, and framed in a black dollar store frame.  Great impact for a buck!!
 Second of all is the white pumpkins that spell BOO!  They are also from the dollar store and were sprayed white, with cute letters decoupaged in place, which were found at Graphics Fairy.

The bird cage is from my own stash, but the black crow was found at the dollar store.


As was our laughing skeleton, dressed in a black card stock top hat to match his compatriot on the other side of the shelf.
 The Third thrifty project was the sweet and spooky small pennant banner, which took me 20 minutes to make from supplies on hand! Phew!
 
I loved how this thrifty display came together, and as you can see, so far I am staying with my resolution to do an all black and white Halloween this year!!  Thanks for taking a peek!
 
I am so excited, this post is being featured at Share Your Cup Thursday go take a peek and see what other amazing and fun blogs have been featured, thanks!

  2. Love it all! I might have to copy the framed skeleton. I picked up those same pumpkins the other day and wondered if I should buy them? Um... I think I'll go back and get them now. LOL

  11. Just hopping back to let you know that I will be featuring you at Share Your Cup later today. Just realized that I think you missed putting a link back to the party on this post. I'm sure you did on your other links. Sure it was just an accident.
