You didn't think I'd let the first week of October slip by without sharing another Halloween project?  Did you?  I started decorating the house for Halloween at the end of last week.  Every time I walk passed one of my Halloween decorations, I get extremely happy.

Second to Christmas, my next favorite holiday to decorate for has got to be Halloween!  I have A TON of Christmas decorations, but my Halloween decorations are definitely catching up.  I may have to start another storage bin for them after this year!

When we're not celebrating this spooky time of year, you won't find me anywhere near creepy, crawly bugs! But for Halloween, I'll add them to my decor - well, as long as they're plastic!  If you add glitter to them, even better!  It might take some of the scare out of them, but they definitely look super cool when glued onto a black canvas!

    These are so cool and creepy. My daughter wants to be an entomologist and I'm pretty sure if I made these she would want to keep them up in her room all year! Thank you for stopping by https://diyhshp.blogspot.com and linking it up to More the Merrier Monday. I can't wait to see what you link up next Monday.
