Haunted Mansion Holiday!
We are leaving this morning for George's birthday trip to Disneyland. This will be our first trip since March...I know! We usually go once a month or so...that's how crazy we are! This time of year the park is all decked out for Halloween. I am hoping to get some inspiration for my "Haunted Mansion Holiday" theme I want to do in my office. I've made a couple of things I can show you...just know it's a work in progress...
Desk top décor...just getting started.
The banners are made from a Halloween version of the Haunted Mansion wallpaper. I hope to make a shadowbox scene based on "Nightmare Before Christmas." I picked up a cool cemetery gate yesterday at Joann. The store is selling Christmas and Halloween fairy garden accessories...with fun miniatures.
Each pennant has a Disney Halloween picture. This one's so cute!

Wicked Treats!
"Wicked Witch Treat Shoppe"
My friend Lynn from the "Weinee Ranch" blog sent me a bunch of craft supplies one day. This hideous witch head was included in the package. I love it! I bought a small carve-able pumpkin at Dollar tree and decided to make it into some kind of shadow box. I don't know how I got the idea to make it into a candy shop...it kind of designed itself. It's hard to find miniature candy that isn't Christmas colored, but I found some suckers and some candy-shaped buttons at Hobby Lobby. The candy bars I made myself with little pieces of wood meant for doll-house shingles. They are about 1 inch in length.
Fun-size candy!
Little Witch behind the counter.
Not quite to scale...but who cares, right?
Trick or Treaters Beware!
I wanted to show a few more new Halloweenies...but it's time to go. I will have more things to share when I get back from the Happiest...Halloween...Place on Earth!
Happy Crafting!
