Halloween Decor

I am a week late with my project. Sorry about that, life can get crazy sometimes. I made a Halloween countdown calendar.

You will need:

12x12 frame (bought or homemade from sq. dowels)
Halloween paper. (I used Authentique collection Glowing) LOVE THIS PAPER!!
Canvas paper
Burlap
1 large wooden clothespin and 31 small clothespins
Twine
Tacks

Cover the frame with the burlap, cut diamonds and rectangles from paper and cut the canvas paper slightly larger than the papers you cut. Adhere the paper to the canvas. I cut 31 1/2in circles and wrote numbers 1-31 and adhere to your paper. With the tacks place on both sides of the frame about 12 on each and take the twine and make three row "clotheslines". Then use the little paper clips to attach the papers. Make a 4x4 square out of cardboard and wrap in burlap and adhere a 3 1/4 x 3 1/4 square piece of paper and attach to the top of the frame. Next cover with paper the large clothespin and adhere to the 4x4 square.  Enjoy!



Until next time,
Trina
