Halloween UFO

Happy day after Halloween!  I hope you had fun and saw lots of kids in creative costumes!

I have completed another UFO!  Yeah!  I started this wall hanging about 5 years ago and finished it two days ago!



After I completed it, I was stumped as to how to hang it.  It was a short term display so I did not want a permanent holder.  Then eureka, I found the solution to my problem - over sized clothes pins.  I purchased them from Michael's.  They were red and I took them apart and painted them black.




Here is a reason not to procrastinate - finish your projects in a timely manner.  This one was in the guest room laying on an ottoman for a year or so when I decided to work on it again.  To my horror I saw this:


Miss Viva had discovered it and started making her afternoon snack from the edge she could reach!  I had to cut off about 1/2 inch on the 4 sides to repair her snack attack!

Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween ya'll!  I tried to take a picture of Viva showing off in her costume but she was having none of it!  So here she is waiting for a treat!

Now that I am hooked on Pinerest, I have too many holiday projects on my mind.  I became obsessed with this wreath and would have bought one if she had any for sale:

RESERVED Listing for "ShellyM" ONLY-Halloween Wreath - Primitive Witch Hat Boots with Matching Crow-40x27x10-INSTALLMENT 1
Since she did not have any for sale last week I was forced to make one myself!  After only 3 trips to crafts stores and many $$ later here is my version!

Not an exact copy - but my version

I love these feet - it took me several tries to make witch shoes!

Hope you have a happy day and see lots of darling costumes.
