{ Thrift Finds }


I found these for $1 each.
I cut a plastic bag to fit over the top part and taped it closed.
Then I spray painted the bottoms.


Some of the moss was falling off and you could see the glue, I bought some spanish moss from the dollar store a while back.
So I used moge podge to glue the spanish moss to the ball.



This is what my entertainment center looked like before.


Remember this... I also bought this mirror for like 2 dollars and spray painted the frame.


I bought these at walmart almost a year ago. I dont remember how much they were.
( I can tell you that they were cheap though, or else I wouldnt have bought them)



I busted out the spray paint again.




I filled them half way with newspaper and the rest with spanish moss.
Then put a candle in it.


Stuck the mirror and the tapestry on the entertainment center along with them.

Im not so sure I like it better now.... but I will have to set on it and think... :)
It was fun though.
I still need to move the star up.

The original color of the pot.
I spray painted it black.

The moge podge some scrapbook paper to it & moge podged the whole thing to seal the paper on
{ I used the glossy moge modge to make my pot have a shine to it}

I still need to put soil in it and plant my plant.

{Frame Re-do}

picked this frame up at DI for $1.00
& I wasnt too fond of the stars so...
I decided to re-do it.



I picked orange scrapbook paper and cut it to fit.

I moge podged the paper to the frame.


Then I did a coat of moge podge over the whole thing to seal it there.

Cut some ribbon and paper to cover where the "sames" were.

Moge podged the strips and ribbon on.
And then your done. Easy!

{ Witch's Broom }


I had some corn left over, that sat in my fridge too long, so i dried it.
I used wire to fasten the corn to the broom and the ribbon to make a bow.



Then i topped it with a witch's hat.

{ Easy Magnets }


Cardboard circles
Scrapbook paper

Magnets ( I used these ones, but I would recommend stronger ones)
Mod podge the cardboard circles to the scrapbook paper. Or you could glue them.

Cut off the extra paper, cut magnets to size and stick on (these ones had adhesive already on them)

Easy as one, two, three. :)
