A while back I bought this frame with a mirror in it for 2.95. I removed the mirror and painted the frame a glossy black.
Then I cut out a witch pattern and glued it on to some thin cardboard.
I bought a piece of glass for 1.86 and put the print in the frame. Instant Halloween decoration.
This was another cheap frame for 1.95. I removed the old print and added the above.
Here are the 3, I have made so far. Pretty nice cheap Halloween decorations!
Teddy update: she is back in the hospital. I was seeing absolutely no improvement in her leg at all. I called first thing this morning and insisted they see her again. I told them I wanted to have her seen by an Orthopedist. When an animal suffers from heat stroke, toxic bacteria is released into the body. This is what kills animals with heat stroke. We are now thinking that this bacteria has infected her hock where they took blood. It has to be cultured and she will have to be on heavy duty antibiotics if this is the case. This will be a problem because it is almost impossible to get her to take pills. My stress level is off the charts about now!

I love your Halloween decorations ~ especially the witch you cut out ~ wow!
I don't have any decorations for Halloween up yet ~ for me its just a tad too early.
When I went walking this morning I saw several homes getting in the "spirit!" One had a giant black spider (and I mean hugs!) and web hanging in the doorway!
Just a thought, my dogs don't like taking pills either. I don't know if you have ever tried this product, but I have found that pill pockets work wonders, they think they are getting a treat.

The Halloween pictures are really creepy!
It´s perfect to buy old frames and put other pictures behind. Old frames is usually so much more beautiful.
Hope everything will be ok with Teddy, but try to have a good day anyway!

It won't be long until Halloween! I can't believe how fast the summer went. I have to say that is the one and only thing I don't like about living in the country...we don't get any trick or treaters on Halloween anymore. :(
I'm so sorry to hear about Teddy and I'm keeping you both in my thoughts.

You are so talented at creating old things into something so wonderful and new! Love the witch and cauldron picture.
