All that I'm after is a LIFE full of laughter, as long as I'm laughing with YOU!

The 31st is here!


Well, it's here at my home... but it will be arriving before you know it on the calendar too!

I saw a cute idea recently and made it my own, using those paper mache type numbers. Most all craft stores carry the letters, I have only found the numbers at Hobby Lobby.

After painting the numbers and a small wooden base black, I just added in a few spooky accents. You could use a wide variety of those small party favor type items you find at all the discount stores. The raven, butterfly and hologram sticker were all found at Micheal's. Add a few cobwebs and a light layer of silver glimmer mist and you have a fun center piece. Mine will be on the food table at my daughter's upcoming Halloween party!
Have a great day!!
