Halloween Memorabilia







The very bottom picture---I had Neil put this shelf in and I put a small hook under the shelf so I could hang up other things too. It's in our entry and I really like it! Michelle made the fabric pumpkins for me several years ago. Do you remember these Michelle???

The other pictures are of crafts that we did 10 years ago. We did these at 'Mac's' in Oregon City, Oregon. We had fun doing these. Do you girls remember any of these?

We did the #10 cans at RS and did them with 'sponge painting' and I remember it was fun!

The other image of the cute pumpkins I did not make. A friend of mine did them for a fundraiser for one of her kids' school. She made them from dryer hose. They are still in mint condition! They are about 12 or 13 years old! Neil is finding such treasures as we go through all these boxes we packed over to the new house!

The very top picture is something that I recently bought, the scarecrow with the silk plants. I had the two lantern pumpkins for about 13 plus years. Do you girls remember them???

It's been fun decorating while still unpacking numerous boxes! I've decided I need to purchase some very big tote bins to store my silk flowers and all my seasonal decorations. I have 8 Christmas tubs. I thought, 'hmmm, that would be a good idea to store other seasonal things in too!' Neil slightly groaned with, 'I guess that means you want more space in my garage?' I responded with, "Why of course!' :o)

I DO remember this stuff! My favorites were always the silly-faced ghosts and the little set of pumpkins in that same picture. Ah memories.
And check this out.

I've been wanting a few of these since we moved into our house! I think Dad might like it!
