Halloween Wreath

So, I really am an idiot for not taking photos throughout the process. I was too excited to find my bag of Halloween decorations to think about it.

But anyways, here it is!

This thing costs me a total of about $8. I can't be sure of how much I bought the original wreath for because it was at a garage sale about a month ago, but it couldn't have been more than $3!

Everything else is from the Dollar Tree. I bought one pack of grey Creepy Cloth and one pack of black Creepy Cloth. The Skeleton Garland came with four hanging skeletons and was actually a lot longer than I expected it would be (60"); I bought two packs of those. The Insane Asylum sign was the perfect touch.

The wreath came with an assortment of flowers and a ribbon hot glued onto it and I didn't want to make a mess of taking it all apart so I had to wrap a good portion of the cloth around those areas. Now it looks kind of like bones and flesh through the cloth which worked out to my advantage.

Since the wreath was made of sticks and twisted wood, I was able to attach everything by hooking it onto the loose twigs. You can find plain wreaths at any Michael's or craft store.

If you have a Dollar Tree nearby, abuse the privilege of wiping out their Halloween decor. They always have an amazing selection to decorate with or to make something greater!

Happy Hauntings!
XOXO
