Crafty: Halloween Banner

A couple of years ago I  picked up some Halloween card size scrapbook paper. I made a couple of cards out of it but I had a bunch left over. Last year I wasn't sure what to do with it, so it just laid there unused again. This year I decided to do something with it... this was only after I found black and orange bakers twine in the dollar section at Target.


These are the supplies that I used to make my banners.

I measured and cut the baker's twine to length.

While I was making these banners I was burning one of my favorite fall scents. The one pictured above. This one is from Bath and Body Works but I also enjoy the one from Yankee Candle. Yankee Candle is my favorite candle company but lately I have found a few candles from Bath Body Works that I enjoy. The haunted house candle holder is from Yankee Candle.

I cut the scrapbook paper into triangles and then...

attached them to the bakers twine with Zots sticky dots.

These two photos are the final products. I have one hanging in my bathroom as well and another one to make for above my window in my living room. However that one is going to be a bit different. So keep a look out for that one *wink*

This is the table as you enter into my apartment. I have this cute fall welcome sign that I believe that I got at Old Time Pottery. I also added a couple of items from my scrapbook papers to add a bit of Halloween. The welcome sign will stay all fall.

*My Thoughts*
This was a fun but time consuming project.
I would come home and the triangles would be all over the floor because they weren't sticking very well with the zots sticky dots. I finally had an idea to cut small squares out of the scraps and attach those to the backs of each triangle.
I can usually find some good craft supplies in Target's dollar section or just some nik naks.
I would love to see your Halloween/Fall projects so leave me a comment and a link to where I can see them.
