I See You

I LOVE Halloween!  Like REALLY LOVE Halloween!!  It is by far my favorite holiday.  The decorations, the costumes, the candy.  What's not to love?
I have had a few of these glass on glass frames for awhile now and have been trying to figure out what to do with them.  Enter Martha.

I ran across this tutorial the other day while perusing the Martha Stewart website.  I adapted mine a little but kept the same process.  The main difference was that I only used the glow in the dark glitter.  Totally love that stuff.  I also have not decided if I will add the Mylar in the back.  If I do, my sister had this AMAZING idea to buy a balloon at the Dollar Tree and cut it open. 
I bought the handle at a store in Washington.  They were on sale for $1 each!!!  I glued the handle to the frame and then added the ribbon as an embellishment.  I bought the letters from Hobby Lobby, painted them orange and distressed them.  I found the glittery spider from Walmart.  They come in a BIG package of black and green for $0.97 and are actually confetti.

Such a fun, simple idea.  The eyes are a great addition to my Halloween decor!
