The challenge at the Cricut Circle blog this month is Halloween Home Decor. I have entered a few projects and this is another one. I cut out some bats using my Happy Hauntings and Chic & Scary cartridges out of plain cardstock. To adhere them to my fireplace I have used the Removable Glue Dots! There are so many uses for these dots, especially around the holidays! I love them!
Just a close up of some of the decorations I have made. All of the candle sticks (including the tall one in the photo below) were purchased at garage sales. They were either white ceramic or 'gold/brass' colored. I spray painted them black. How easy is that.
Another view of the tall candlestick. The boot is another thrift store find... still searching for the 'perfect boot'.
I used the negative pieces of cardstock from the bats as a stencil and created this quick and easy table runner out of a scrap piece of burlap. Yes I do need more table decor (LOL). I did it for the Scrapbooker's Paradise Ponderings challenge:
It is also another entry into the Cricut Circle Monthly challenge - home decor.

Wow! Love all the bats in your fireplace! :)
Love your Halloween decor, Laurel! The bats look great on your fireplace and runner. I keep hearing about spray painting one's thrifty finds but have never done it. I should, looks great! All your pieces work wonderfully well together!
PS meant to add, I think using the removable glue dots is a fantastic idea and one I probably wouldn't have thought of. Thanks for the tip!
Ooh, what fabulous Halloween decor, Laurel!! LOVE those bats on your fireplace! Awesome transformation on the candlesticks and boot, too. So cool how you made the table runner with the bat negatives. LOVE all of these fabulous projects. :)
