Easy to make Halloween Decorations using rub-ons. Plus... Bat Brew a Free Halloween Label to Print


I used the words wicked, boo and bad luck in rub-ons to put on glass bottles. A skull rub-on was applied to a thrift store trophy. The Rub ons are the kind you would use in scrap-booking. This was a very easy project and only took minutes to do. Tape the rub-on onto the bottle securing down the edges so that it does not slip. Using a craft stick rub hard until the design is adhered to the glass.


The Bat Brew Label is another project, one I designed in Photoshop. You can print it for free below.

Here is the free Bat Brew Halloween label that you can print out as many times as you want for personal use. Put these on your bottled beers for your Halloween Party. Or use one on any bottle to add to your Halloween Decorations.

It's time for Halloween costumes and handmade Halloween Decor.

September seemed to be a busy month. Well with school starting, this year we decided to home school with an online state school. So we all had to get use to the new daily routine. He loves it so far. And then there's putting the garden to bed for the winter. It always seems to come so fast sometimes. It's been cold and we received our first snow this weekend. Now with Halloween only weeks away, it seems like Christmas is just around the corner. Halloween is one of my favorite holidays and I have so much fun decorating for the occasion. Check out some of my Halloween ideas from last year.
I have just started a store at Artfire. I have been listing some vintage Halloween costumes and handmade Halloween Decor. These Clown costumes can be happy or evil, depending on your makeup or mask. And the skull tassels below are great to decorate with. Tie back your curtains, hang on a door knob, put one one a bottle of wine for a spooky chic hostess gift.
