remember my super cute pirate ghost made with a McDonald's milk jug? Well...I had/have several of those little jugs around the house (or in a bag of 'craft recycles'). Kim at Frost Me came up with the great idea of writing BOO on them
(and adding a battery powered tea light - still looking for those).
That Kim's so smart!!
Spray painted the whole thing...let it dry & removed the vinyl stickers
picked up some inexpensive flowers at the Dollar Tree (that's right..they were $1)
and I got myself a purdy arrangement of Halloween flowers.
the best thing about this(besides it being cheap)is that I can use it pretty much anywhere in my house and NO, I don't usually keep flowers on my floor :)
I'm working on a project that requires overnight drying.
I CAN NOT stand to wait..but this time, I will.
I hope it turns out as cute as I hope.
It involves a pizza pan and chalkboard paint.

Super cute, Staci! :) I need to get on the bandwagon with these cute vinyl stickers everyone is using. You did a great job! :) Thanks so much for linking up with me!!
How creative - super cute!
Looks great! You could use this technique to do a happy birthday series or any other message. Not just for Halloween! x
Fabulous! I have 2 boys so this looks like a craft that will hold up to their shenanigans.

That's super cute! Love your pirate ghost too. Now I'm mad at myself for throwing those little bottles in recycle... although I'm sure I'll have a few gathered by the time halloween rolls around :)
Too stinking adorable! I love a good upcycling project.
So dang cute!
I love not only how cute and simple it is, but that you kept those bottles out of a landfill!
