Hear no, see no , speak no evil

We've finally gotten the majority of the Halloween projects and decorations up. The hubby will tinker with his things in the yard daily until Halloween, but I'm done inside the house. All that's left is to share with you in case you need some last minute ideas.

Here is my dining room centerpiece for this year, inspired by a project at Michael's. I already had items on hand, so I didn't have to go to Michael's this time to make it.

Here's the whole table. I used the same mats and napkin rings from last year. I've got a piece of creepy cloth from the Dollar Tree under the tray for a table runner.

This is a quick and easy project, most of which you can get from the Dollar Tree or Dollar store. Throw some moss on the tray and a few bugs and spiders to add to the effect.

You may have noticed my ornament topiary in my last post about my window wreaths. That was another project that was on my list last year. I was inspired by these at BHG because they were in my color scheme. I set out to make one this year. I didn't follow the directions at BHG. Instead, I did a little more searching and then just did it my way. Most people suggest painting your stryofoam ball in a complimentary color first. I skipped this step because I was in a hurry, but I do recommend you do that. I used a 4 in styrofoam ball, 3 different size ornaments and a glitter pick. I also used a dowel rod which I covered in washi tape and a planter from the dollar tree. My planter was originally bronze, but with a few coats of spray paint it became silver. You also need some foam for the planter and something to cover it with. I used moss and blue glass pebbles. The pebbles give the bottom some weight. I think this makes a much better centerpiece for this ar
