Happy Halloween to All & Happy Birthday
to two of my favorite Spooks!
Beulah Hafen: Is my incredible #2 Mom and today is her birthday. She is probably spending the day in bed, not a fun way to be on a birthday, but she's not feeling well after a little fall the other day. But Happy Birthday to you anyway Mom Hafen. I love you and am so glad to have you a part of my life.
Brenna Ezparza: Is the other birthday celebrant. She is one of my favorite nieces. Her mom always decorated for the holidays and one memory I have is of Brenna always reminding her mom to decorate for Halloween real early. She knew it was her birthday and I believe for quite some time she believed everyone decorated and celebrated for her birthday. Brenna has 4 children of her own today and I believe Halloween is still a favorite holiday for her and her family.
I had fun this year with a few new projects inspired my Martha Stewart's Halloween magazine. I made the wreath below for under $15!!! Gotta love a bargain. The wreath I purchased at Michael's for $7 and the roses & skull came from the $1 Store. I painted the roses black and tipped them with purple glitter the glittered the skull. The ribbon was Christmas ribbon on sale, there is about 45 cents of ribbon and some hot glue to hold it all together.
I found a little bag of skulls, originally bought for the wreath, and put them in with my pumpkins in my canister on the tabel in the entry. Many visitors commented on them and enjoyed seeing them; a lot of fun for a $1. Visitors really liked them, so did Chuck and I.
