The centerpiece on the mantel is a thrifted frame with a Halloween chalkboard design ..
2 garlands and some Dollar tree spooky cloth .. a Halloween pom pom garland and the DIY book page garland I have used for a few years .. I tried not to use it this year but it didn't seem like Halloween without it :)
The witch legs and the Beware signs are from Dollar Tree last year .I used white and orange lights .. black tulle ribbon .. white sweater pumpkins and crows from the Dollar Tree
I also painted the subway art sign and drew the trick or treat chalkboard that is on the piece of vintage picket fence ..
It's beginning to look a lot like Halloween !
Last years Halloween home tour .. This years tour coming this week!

Good morning!
This is Halloween Medley from Heart In Hand Needleart stitched by Chelsea and finished by me ..
I found the frame at a thrift store .. It was a greenish aqua color and said Home Sweet Home .. Chelsea spray painted it with black paint .. I mounted the stitching on sticky board .. and mounted Halloween stripe fabric on sticky board . Glued those two pieces together and then glued to the frame .The sides of the frame went from very decorative to very plain .. so I added plaid Halloween ribbon . ..
I made a bow from 2 different Halloween Ribbons and added a wooden ghost to the bow with some Halloween berries , ***Please remember if you copy my finishing ideas that you be considerate and give a link to my blog or facebook page..****
I also added a jack o Lantern to the bottom .. It is a very cute piece for Halloween!

Good morning!
This is Every Heart by Country Cottage Needleworks ..stitched by Chelsea and finished by me ..
***Please remember if you copy my finishing ideas that you be considerate and give a link to my blog or facebook page..****
I found the frame at Walmart .. it was gold so Chelsea spray painted it white .. I mounted the stitching on sticky board with 2 layers of batting .. I used the method we showed in the video below to attach it to the sticky board ..
After it was secured to the sticky board I glued a piece of red gingham ribbon to the top and the bottom
I used the prongs that were on the back of the frame to hold the stitched piece in .. Easy ! Two different patriotic ribbons were made into a bow for the top and then a painted white wood star was placed in the center .. It is a beautiful piece .. I also stitched this design and you can read more about it here
