Third Seven days Haunting Halloween & Blog Hop Fun

Third Seven Days Haunting
For the Third – Seven days of Haunting Halloween its a Home Decor item. Joe is still tearing up my kitchen and about to move into my crafty room. YIKES!! So I am actually sad that I do not have my fall decorations up. I have pumpkins for days that could pretty much be ALLLLL over the house. ANYWAY, welcome if you have never been here before. Why do I mention this?? This post is a Blog Hop too!! WOOOOHOOOO!

Now, let’s take a closer look at this fun little project. This came about from a scrap piece of lumber (kitchen remodel). Like any construction areas there are pieces all over the place!!

To some just a piece of garbage?? To me an idea.
This measures 3 1/2 x 5 3/4. I picked it up off the floor and knew I had to make something. Are you loving all those little wood signs with the fun sayings?? They are EVERYWHERE, even the dollar store. I said to myself… SELF… I can make that!! And yes, even better! Why because I can make exactly what I want!! Colors and all!!

Question….
Do you keep Modge Podge?? I usually have some, but “cleaning” the craft room has left things in unusual places. So I improvised, Multipurpose Glue and a couple drops of water…. worked like a charm!! Make small batches and be sure to wash off right away. Dontcha, love that Silicone Craft Sheet!!
I was sure to add about 1/4 inch of Magic in this Night DSP extra for each of the sides and top. Be sure to work from the bottom to the top so that you do not get wrinkles. A 1/2 scrap for around the outer edges of the wood. phew… that was a lot already. I will add a full supply list on the bottom. The “fence” is more scrap (3/8 inch) DSP. Did you know that the bats on the DSP fit the die cut included in the Hallow Night Magic bundle?
However, when I first put this together. I did not plan to add the pumpkins. But it needed something. It really needed some pumpkins, the Apple builder punch was TOO big. hummm, What did I have that would work?? A returning favorite and I did love those pumpkins last year for sure!!
I would love to hear what you have to say about my little scrap piece of wood! Are you ready for a few more projects??
