I am so glad fall is here! I love lows in the 50’s, sleeping with the windows open. Crunchy leaves and acorns falling from our trees. It also means some wonderful holidays are right around the corner. Although my kids are too old to dress up and go out on Halloween, I still enjoy the holiday and decided to get a start on some projects.
The first project is just the simple word boo.
I painted the inside of the letters black. Next I mod podged sheets of scrapbook paper to the letters. When they were dry, I used a razor blade to trim them up. I used a couple of embellishments to jazz them up a bit. I can hardly wait for October to put them up!
