Heidi ho friends! I made a project this weekend that's 100% completely for me (and the best part is that it totally and completely makes me laugh). I decided to redo a project that I created last year that unfortunately got smashed when it was put away.
I started off knowing that I wanted to make a mini booth of some sort for this revamped version.
My initial plan was to make a lemonade stand... I even had a little mini pitcher and cups all ready to go!
...I box pleated a little skirt for the stand and decorated the edges with some teal pom pom trim and orange bling!
I cut the legs from some leftover branches from a project I made for Live with Prima this past Thursday. The top is just a little balsa plank I got at JoAnns.
I made a little graveyard using more of those balsa wood planks and some black distress ink, paper and buttons.
I decorated the graveyard and kissing booth with some super sweet mini crochet pumpkins that my mom made up for me. If you want some MomChops mini punkins all for your very own, you get them at my Etsy shop right HERE! I am completely in love with these little guys!
Now you're probably wondering who in the world would be manning a kissing booth at a graveyard?!?!?!?!
Why this handsome fella of course!!!
He was used in my Halloween HUGS pumpkin project from last year!
(the very one that got smashed up)
You can see the whole tutorial on how I made that fella right HERE.
I also wanted to share a fabulous project that one of my readers (Hi, Alice) made just a month or so ago using this same technique!
I LOVE THAT SPIDER!
Since Mr. Spooky Skeleton was busting out the HUGS last year...
I figured this year he'd better be offering up some KISSES!
...and the only way to go is free when it comes to skelly kisses right?!?!...
Any takers???
No, huh???
Here is the whole project all put together!
I am going to be a little more careful putting him away this time around.
(Mr. Skelly looks a tad headless in this photo... YIKES!!!)
That's all I gots for today!
I'll be back this Thursday with a quick little video tutorial so be sure to pop back by!
Skelly Kisses and big thanks for dropping by!
