Boo Banner!

BOO, seems to be popping up all over the place!
I know it is a little early to put up Halloween decorations but I really wanted to see how this would look in this window. If you look closely you can see that the little flags (I have no idea what to call them) are held on by clothespins. That way I can keep the ribbon on the window and just replace the banners when I want. A lot less work then putting ribbon through each flag. The black mass on each side of the banner is a bunch of black leaves. They add that bit of creepiness that the banner really needs.

Owls still seem to rule a lot of my little creations.


It is such a cool and gloomy day here! I am not happy with all the pictures. I had to use the flash and it is only 12:10 in the afternoon.

Very cute! And great idea on using the clips rather than threading the ribbon through..so you can change out. And oh man, love that window...I would so love for my sink to have a window over it...rather than just a wall. : D

So cute. I love Halloween. Do you use a die cut for your letters?
The black leaves are definitely the final touch!
Blessings,

Thanks for the compliments! Lorilee, I actually just trace letters from stencil patterns.

I love the idea of using pegs to secure the flags. The banner looks great!
