Harvest Subway Art

I love all of this art Popping up everywhere. So I was excited to get my hand in this Fall Art.

The first thing I did was to paint a piece of 17X30 plywood cut at LOWE'S for free!, the First layer

was painted Brown I then Used this Great Aged/Peeling paint technique Tutorial from      BrassyApple 

I have access to a Cricut so I Cut up several words to be used as a stencil to make the different words, If you do not have access to a cutting machine, you can print the words on a computer and use an  x-acto knife with a cutting mat to cut out your words, Make sure to use Cardstock, I used all those random colored papers I would never use on other projects. I then used a stencil brush, But honestly I think it might have been easier to trace the letters then paint inside the lines with a paint brush which is what I did with the glittered letters.

(I used good old fashioned school glue for the Glitter)

 

Halloween Banner

 

Tip #1 Glitter: I mixed 3 types of glitter to achieve the perfect letters I also mixed Gold and orange to give it a little bit more fun texture to the clip board letters.

Tip #2 Ribbon I LOVE ribbon I think That it can add so much to the simplest banner

I glittered some bells and sewed them on.

   

This one I made reversible one side says October, the other side says Halloween,

Halloween Words I came up with:

October, Spooky, eek!, Boo, Witchy, Scary, Treat, punkin, pumpkin, ghost, skeleton, Spiders, Witch, Oct 31st, Monster, creepy, candy, Batty

Halloween Clock

Supplies that I used to make this:
1. An old kitchen drawer from my mother-in-laws remodel
2. Dollar Tree crows and skeleton
3. Papers and craft supplies (Old Halloween decor torn apart :)
4. Martha Stewart Glitter (everything looks better in glitter)
5. $4 clock from Target
6. I put my girls in black outfits took their pictures  to decorate.
7. A couple of friends to come over and make one with me to keep me inspired.

  

I love Halloween, I love when the air is crisp, the smells of Pumpkin and Apple cider. How kids get to dress up into something else for the day. I am getting over excited to start working on Halloween Decorations.
