Have a "Shabby" Halloween! ~ Halloween Blog Hop



Good morning and welcome to our Halloween blog hop! We have several talented ladies who will be sharing fun Halloween projects with you today, to hopefully inspire you to create some Halloween crafts of your own! If you just happened upon my blog, please go to Kimberli's blog at www.kimberliscreations.blogspot.com to start from the beginning, so you don't miss anything! There will be some fun giveaways along the way, so be sure to hop by each of the blogs so you don't miss any!
For this hop, I created what I consider to be shabby chic Halloween decor:




Material's Used:
  • Echo Park The Apothecary Emporium paper collection
  • Cricut Cartridges Happy Hauntings, October 31 and Pumpkin Carvings
  • Stampin' Up Basic Black ink pad
  • Teresa Collin's blingage
  • Misc ribbons
  • Martha Stewart chunky glitter
  • Misc wine bottles
  • Candles
These candle holders were super easy to make. Once I selected my papers, I cut coordinating images for each bottle and edged them in black.  The Witches Brew includes cuts from Happy Hauntings and October 31.  The Potion bottle includes cuts from October 31st & Pumpkin Carvings.   They both sit upon my faux lace, spider web mat created from Pumpkin Carvings.  To continue the  shabby chic look, I added chunky glitter to several of the cuts to include the bat, witch, moon and wolf.  I also wrapped the bottles with very feminine bows and ties and added black blingage to each bottle.  Lastly, I added the candles and voila, the look is complete.

To thank you for visiting during this hop, I have a small giveaway, a holiday ribbon/twine sampler:


To be elgible all you have to do is leave a comment on this post.  I will use Random.org to chose a winner on October 31st.   Thank you again for visiting and I hope you have a "Shabby Halloween"!
