Halloween is coming and I am so excited! This year we are having our first annual Halloween Costume party and I am really looking forward to it. Of course, that means I get to go crazy decorating the house for the party!!! Last year I found this super cool witch at TJ Maxx. She was perfect last year because I had a mantel to sit her on.
So I sat her on top of these boxes. And then a light bulb went on and I thought..."What if I make her a skirt to cover the boxes and then she would look like she was standing up?"
These boxes are being recycled from a previous project that I created for the Cricut Circle Blog.
This was the perfect solution! All I needed to do was sew her a skirt. I dug through my fabric stash, found some black and silver fabric and did just that. I even recycled the black lace along the edge of her skirt. Here she is after her re-model!
She now stands proudly on the buffet in my dining room and keeps watch over the spiders in the jar next to her! ;)
I loveeeeeeeee her transformation!!! The skirt is fabulous!!!!
ReplyDeleteso very fun!!
ReplyDeleteI love how you up-cycled your witch! She looks awesome!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, that witch is sooooo adorable! What a fabulous find. And the skirt you made is absolutely perfect! Although, I wouldn't have been able to cover up those awesome boxes. That decoration was too cute as well! I love Halloween decorations!
ReplyDeleteWow! Fabulous re-model! I love how the witch looks now.
ReplyDeleteAwesome re-purposing Juliana, and I have to say I actually love her this way more than in the sitting position! You did an awesome job adding the skirt!

ReplyDeleteOh, this is sooo witty! Decorating already now for Halloween? I have not even decided if I will do anything for the kids yet! It is just not a big event here.
ReplyDeleteUmmm ... WOW! She was an adorable witch to begin with, and that skirt you made for her is perfect! I love how you were able to find a way to make something old(ish) work in a new way!!!!
