Halloween Porch and Garden Decorations

I am sure you know by now....i love Halloween, it is my BEST time of the year....

Although here in the UK Halloween is catching on slowly, I wish we would embrace it like and friends in the USA.

There are so many amazing ideas out there I could turn this blog into a devoted Halloween blog...Don't worry I wont.

So I have had a REALLY hard time sorting my favourites out, there are so many to choose from, so here goes:


Totally Reinvented


From this to this.............


 


Kimn at Reinvented designed and created this stunning decoration for her porch. How fabulous is the contrast between the pumpkin colours and the black and white polka dots?  What a fresh new look to traditional orange/black Halloween colours.



Door Decor



Poundland Pumpkins - Cut them in half, spray and paint....Simples.....

Scarily Refreshing
Drink Cooler


The old watering hole provides plenty of drinks served up in pretty and practical pumpkin coolers. TIP: Line the pumpkin with heavy plastic or a bowl to keep melting ice from soaking through the pumpkin. 




Chicken??? Wire

How about placing some ghostly figures like these in your garden, made from chicken wire.

Mod Podge Boo-ed


There are a number of these mod-podge wooden letters scattered around the internet and on Pinterest.  But Amy from then she made  had made a fantastic tutorial.  Why not pop over and see how she made it?

Ribbon Topiary



Don't you just love the colours....this is so simple to do.  This is a simple take on the pink and black and zebra print ribbon wreath I made in January, instead of using insulation pipe, use a polystyrene large ball and stick.



Well, as we are going away tomorrow, I think I should go and pack.... So the final thought........



Time for a brew


I cant remember where I found this picture,  But I loved it so much I had to feature it.  If this fabulous creation is your, let me know and i will credit you.

So this time  i thought i would test out a milk paint recipe What you need: 4 parts milk powder 1 part bicarbonate of soda 1 part pigment 6 parts cold water Patience  The method is pretty simply. All you need to do is mix the milk, bicarbonate of soda and pigment powders together then add the water and stir well. Leave the paint to sit for 1 hour then stir again and paint. (I know, i know you probably will want to get painting you project, but if you can wait – you will get better outcomes - try watching an episode of  Once Upon a Time... oh lord, my sister and i are addicted) The milk paint dries quickly so once you’ve started using it and be careful not go back over areas, as you can wipe the paint back off. Even though it is touch dry in about 15 min...
