Pumpkins, Crows and Halloween Masks
September 18, 2012
This Halloween post starts with this little girl... (my mom)
and her sister in Halloween masks. (I got this idea from Country Living Magazine)
Then come the crows with crowns on white pumpkins... (I got this idea from the internet)
Their crowns are cut from a vintage Reader's Digest yellowed book page.
The large pumpkin is real and painted white... (because a white one could not be found locally)
I made the Halloween banner on Word, and then dripped a tea bag on it.
There were black taper candles in white candlesticks in the vignette too, but I don't think they added much.
Spooky, huh?
Sharing is caring
Spooky Cute.
ReplyDeleteI saw the fake white pumpkins at Hobby Lobby. I wanted one for a project but they wanted $22 with 40%. Then I would have had to carve it....so I bought something else.
Very cool! Gotta love the pictures the best! Hugs~ Diane
ReplyDeleteI need to find some fake pumpkins soon. My $ Tree has junk and Hobby Lobby wanted $25.00 for one? crazy! This is a cute vignette. xo
ReplyDeleteThe masks on the B&W family photos are a scream. In the best way.
ReplyDeleteWow! Charlene...this post is loaded with cute ideas! I LOVE everything ... from the crowns on the crows to the masks on your old photographs. Great Job!!!
ReplyDeleteLove the black and white pictures of you kiddos! The little masks are so clever! You really are rocking! It's an adorable vignette!
ReplyDeleteVery cute Halloween decor. Love the masks and the royal crows with their crowns!
ReplyDeleteThese are all so cute! I love that you used your mom and your aunt's photos and the crowns on the crows are toooooo cute. Must be fashioning some of those ASAP! TFS! :)
ReplyDeleteSpooky yet so cute!
ReplyDeleteIs it time to get my Halloween stuff out already? I have a black crow that my husband & kids find creepy. I wonder if they'd like him better if he was wearing a crown like yours? ;D
Oh my gosh Carlene, this is to DIE for girl! The masks are a hoot. You know I love crows and the crowns are so much fun. Think I might have to add crowns for Halloween to my crow mantel. The white pumpkins are great too. Seeing this makes me want to pull out my Halloween. NO, NO, I will wait till Oct. 1st.

BEST SPOOKY POST EVER! I just love the masks, and I would have never thought to paint a pumpkin, You're a genius! I want to imitate your masks. My daughter will either die laughing or call her sister so they can talk about how I'm going off the deep end. It's a toss up!
