The vampire is a creation by my friend Jennifer. We were looking for some simple things to use since we have only a small box of Halloween decorations so far (until I finally get my things from the other side of the country!)

The Vampire is a milk jug painted white, the eyes were drawn and cut out then taped on and the mouth drawn on.

My Frankenstein is a butter bucket with construction paper for the face.

and finally the Shrunken Head was made (and meant to be a tree at first) by Jennifer with a paper bag and some paint.

Jar-o-lanterns. I used a pickle jar, a jam jar and a 2 oz baby food jar (which I have WAY too many of)

I mixed my own orange ++yellow +red

And I cut out construction paper for the face. I did my own face but if you don’t want to draw yours just Google pumpkin face stencil, there are plenty out there.

The ribbon is Halloween ribbon from Micheal’s

Stairway. Still not finished. I want another tone of tan at an inch to line the top and bottom of the brown stripe; and I am considering sponge texturing the strip…. hmmm

Pay tongue-in-cheek tribute to those who have gone before with tombstones cut from plastic-foam planks. Add humorous epitaphs to curb the fear factor.

Every high-quality Halloween display requires a few creepy crawlies. Marshal a parade of scarab beetles — Egyptian symbols of immortality — across a crypt.
