Frankenstein Pillow

Frankenstein Pillow Tutorial:

I designed a stencil on my Sir Cuts A lot program and cut it out with my Cricut. I then made a 11"x26" pillowcase out of a painter's dropcloth. After those two steps, I sprayed the back of the stencil with spray adhesive and centered it on the front pillowcase piece.

Next, I taped the bolts off, and painted that area with silver acrylic paint. Once the silver paint was dry, I took the tape off and painted the letters with lime green acrylic paint.

This is what the front of the pillow looked like after the stencil was pulled off.

I wanted to add some pizazz to the lettering, so I used my sewing machine and sewed on some stitches. Next, with right sides together, I sewed the back piece onto the front piece. Be sure to leave a hole so you can turn it right side out. Finally I stuffed it with stuffing and sewed the hole shut.

SO

CUTE!!!

I also made a Frankenstein pillow with felt letters.

Crow Pillow

Using the same technique as my Trick or Treat Pillows, I made myself some Gobble Gobble Gobble pillows. I think they turned out just as adorable...

All of the above pillows are for sale in my Etsy Shop.

My Mom has also made some fantastic Halloween pillows. If you wonder where I get my creativity, it comes from my mother.

Aren't they adorable!

My mom found a pattern for these two pillows on Pinterest and recreated some for herself...

Isn't this Frank pillow the cutest! My mom is so talented.

Copy Cat Halloween

I found a couple of projects online that I wanted to recreate.

I originally found this great project on Burton Avenue I changed a couple of of the road names, but everything else is the same.

I found this wreath project on Ready, Set, Craft I bought my bones from orientaltrading.com for $30. I like my wreath, but I like the original a whole lot better.

Halloween Tree

Halloween Tree Tutorial:

Halloween Tree Supplies:
-dead tree branch
-plaster of paris
-planter box/urn
-decorative moss
-spray paint

Mix together some plaster of paris and water until you get the right consistency.

Put the tree branch in the urn and situate it so the tree branch sticks straight up. You need to secure it so it stays in place. We sandwiched it between wire and our house. Next, pour the plaster of paris into the urn.

Let the plaster dry for a couple of days...

Next, spraypaint the tree branch black. Let that dry.

Lastly, glue some moss around the branch so it hides the plaster.

I found a great spot on my porch to display it...

I added some crows (I found them at Dollar Tree) to the branches.

So easy, cheap and CUTE!

You can buy the pillows in my Etsy Shop, plus many others....
