Debbiedoo's Copy Cat Challenge: Halloween Edition

Monday, October 31, 2011


Photobucket



I needed some last minute Halloween decorations, so I turned to last year's Country Living Magazine (October 2010).  I thought these little ghosts were so cute when I first saw them! They are made from wedding bells you buy at the party store, black construction paper, and cheese cloth.  Easy peasy lemon squeezy!

Here is the magazine's version of a haunt of ghosts:

And here is mine:

We are in the throws of an all-out haunting, I tell ya!  :D

Are you a magazine copy cat?  If so, please join Debbie for her Magazine Copy Cat Challenge!

I hope everyone has a safe and fun Halloween!

Until next time...

Blessings!
Ricki Jill

    Awesome imitation. I had seen those on Country Living's website and had wanted to make them, but forgot about them by the time Halloween came around. They look great!

    Good Morning Riki Jill Sweetie...
    Oh my gosh, you did an awesome job. Now those are just SO stinkin cute. They are perfect for the occasion. I take Country Living magazine and I sure missed that decoration.

    Love the faces, and can't wait to see them all in their places. Just in time for the occasion.

    Happy Halloween sweetie. Country hugs and much love, Sherry

    Hi Ricki,
    A fabulous idea! Have a great Halloween with lots of fun. Here in Jamaica they have some Halloween parties but they are mainly in the town areas. I live in a rural area. Take care.
