Last week we posted about my Haunted Mansion inspired wall: And this week for $5 Friday we are going to share how we made 5 of the items from the wall for less than $5. So let's get started. The very first thing I made for my wall was my two old crows picture: I had this weird old picture of two bath tubs...like I said weird... So I pulled the mat and pictures out of the frame: That's when I discovered the tubs were glued to the mat. Oh well, that didn't really bother me. I still went ... View the Post

Today's project comes from an afternoon at Simon's "Man Science Club".

When hinges creak in doorless chambers….{Haunted Mansion Inspired Halloween Wall}
"When hinges creak in doorless chambers, and strange and frightening sounds echo through the halls. Whenever candlelights flicker where the air is deathly still.

A Halloween Quilt.
A month or two ago I decided to clean out the fabric scrap bins (yes, it is embarrassingly bins). So, I went through all of them and started sorting them by color. I threw away small pieces (I know some of you are cringing right now), gave away two grocery sack of others...and then got down to one bin of my own! Major improvement. And when I was done the oranges and grey scrap piles ended up next to each other...which made me think it was time to cut them up into a Halloween quilt. Which ... View the Post
