Halloween DIY Witch Hat Decor - Buttons Galore

 

 Halloween  Witch Hat Home Decor - Featuring Buttons Galore's Pearlz

 I love creating holiday home decor to freshen up the house at Halloween. 

My piece today is a wooden witches hat decor piece adorned with Half Pearlz and 3D button embellishments from Buttons Galore and More.  

What are Half Pearlz?  They are a collection of coordinating iridescent flat backed pearls.  The flat back makes them easy to glue on projects. Buttons Galore has a wonderful assortment of colorful Half Pearlz for various occasions and seasons. You can find all the Half Pearlz here.

Today I am showcasing Buttons Galore and More - Pearlz - Wicked Fun HPZ214- richly colored oranges, purples, lavenders and iridescent black. Perfect for adding a touch of Halloween spirit to your projects.

After painting the hat with black acrylic paint, it looked a bit flat when it dried so I added texture with a  bubble stencil and gloss gel medium (Ranger Ink - Multi Medium - Gloss which dries glossy - and    The Crafter's Workshop - Random Bubbles stencil ).

The gel medium is a great adhesive gel also so I added the Buttons Galore Half Pearlz to the hat while the gel was still wet. It's a great permanent bonding medium. Glue woks fine as well, but the gel medium was easy and convenient.  

The project has a few other dimensional elements from Buttons Galore.  In addition to the Half Pearlz, I have added some  3D Buttons from Button Value Pack - Halloween VP316 and the 3D Buttons - Bats.

 The wood witch hat is from Foundations decor.

DIY Halloween Pumpkin Jack-o-lantern Home Decor - Buttons Galore

 

 Halloween Pumpkin Home Decor - Featuring Buttons Galore's Pearlz

 It's almost time to decorate the home with Halloween fun.  Why not create something new to freshen up your holiday collection? 

My piece today is a wooden jack-o-lantern decor piece adorned with Half Pearlz and 3D button embellishments from Buttons Galore and More.  

What are Half Pearlz?  They are a collection of coordinating iridescent flat backed pearls.  The flat back makes them easy to glue on projects. Buttons Galore has a wonderful assortment of colorful Half Pearlz for various occasions and seasons. You can find all the Half Pearlz here.

Today I am showcasing Buttons Galore and More - Pearlz - Wicked Fun HPZ214- richly colored oranges, purples, lavenders and iridescent black. Perfect for adding a touch of Halloween spirit to your projects.

I painted the jack-o-lantern wood figure and twisted green wire to create vine tendrils.  After the paint is dry, I'll wrap the vines around the wood stem to secure in place. 

The Buttons Galore Half Pearlz are super easy to glue to surfaces however when I'm creating home decor, I prefer to adhere embellishments with a clear matte gel medium like The Crafter's Workshop - Gel Medium - Matte .   It's easy to use and is a permanent bonding medium - unlike hot glue which loses it's bond over time. 

The project has a few other dimensional elements from Buttons Galore.  In addition to the Half Pearlz, I have added some  3D Buttons from Button Value Pack - Halloween VP316.  

 The wood pumpkin jack-o-lantern is from Foundations decor.

Graveyard DIY Home Decor with Instructions - Whimsy Stamps

 

Today I am thrilled to be a special guest blogger for Whimsy Stamps for their 31 Nights of Halloween Celebration on their blog.  You can find all the spooktacular fun on their blog, right here.  

What can be more spooky this time of year than a grave yard?!  I gathered some goodies from Whimsy Stamps and set to work on a 3D home decor graveyard.

  Scroll, down for DIY instructions. 

 

Whimsy Stamps is more than stamps.  They have an amazing selection of unique dies which were used to help make this decor piece today.  

The gravestones, cats, fencing and accessories were created using The Build-a-Graveyard die set designed by Deb Davis from Amped2Stamp.  

 

Instructions for the DIY Graveyard

Here are the finished 3D gravestones 

The sentiments and creepy cobwebs on the gravestones were from the two stamp sets below: 

 Spider Web Frame Rubber Cling Stamp by Deb Davis Amped2Stamp

Spooky Kitties Clear Stamp by Dustin Pike

Here are more images of the finished crypts and stones.  Enjoy!  I know I sure did.
