1. Candy
2. Costumes
3. Spooky Decor
I don't decorate for Halloween, but for a few things here and there. And when I do, I go with the gothic look. Spooky black candlesticks; black ravens; cobwebs; etc.
So when it came time to put something on the door, I couldn't do a big giant jack-o-lantern or ghost. That's just not my thing.
Also, I kind of forgot about it and needed something super quick!
My usual method of crafting involves scouring the internet and decor magazines to get an idea of what I want. Then I head to the nearest craft store (JoAnns, Michaels, Hobby Lobby) and buy what I need. And often I'll change my mind once I start browsing!
This time was no different. I had a plan. A list even. And once I got to the store, I changed my mind completely.
And it's funny to me how incredibly easy this was to make.
I give you...
Black Feather Spooky looking kinda-gothic wreath:
So you need:
1. A wire wreath form
2. 2 feather boas

| This looks like the beginnings of some kind of evil angel costume, doesn't it? |
The instructions are quite simple. Just wrap the boas around the wreath form!
I found a cute little "BOO to you" sign that I thought was fitting. I added it in there.
In the end, I liked it! And my 14 month old daughter thought the feathers were hilarious. Every time I opened the door she squealed with delight.
