KEEP CALM and CARRY....GARLIC?

I know Halloween is 2 months away but I actually have an itch this year to make lots of fun hand made decorations.  This has also been a great bonding experience with my son too! He is all about making things spooky.

When it comes to making specific hand made items, I have learned you have got to make due with what you have, hence the packing tape on the back of this board to hold the ribbon on. Haha!

Now, I wish I could take full credit for this, but I got the idea from a local craft store.

 

Here is a glimpse of what my door will look like on Halloween Night!
