My Halloween Tree, Ornaments and Decorations...

Here it is more than halfway through October and I'm just now posting about my Halloween Tree and handmade ornaments. Every year I decorate my topiary tree for Halloween and make and purchase a few new ornaments for it.



I realized this paper skull ornament was turned around on the tree so I added it here. It is a Martha Stewart online printable from years ago.
My daughter surprised me with these next ornaments she made and mailed to me from college in Colorado! I love them all!! some are felt, some polymer clay and Frankie is perler beads.

I made the next felt Halloween ornaments for her and surprised her with them.  She needed something mama made!! I got the bat idea from Pinterest HERE.
 
 
I also made her this felt orange and black banner for her fireplace mantle (this is a pic of the banner on my mantle before I sent it to her). I bought the felt spiders at Hobby Lobby and the orange and black felt also. I sewed the banner triangles onto a long length of ribbon I also bought at Hobby Lobby.

I sent her these felt candy corns I made too. I just drew a pattern onto copy paper and cut them out, pinned each piece to the different colored felt and cut them out. I stitched the face with floss before I stitched the pieces together. I will also say that I got my candy corn colors in the wrong order, but they turned out sweet anyway!

And this is my entry table and sofa table. I have a small Halloween village I've been putting out since my girls were little. I also decorated the guest bathroom with peel and stick spiders and webs and a giant candelabra I picked up at Target a few years back. I think the grand girls will be too spooked to potty!! lol, Happy Halloween!!
The picture doesn't do this decorated chandelier justice. It really is cool looking. dressed in orange and black tulle, spiders, paper bats and orange glitter balls.
