Green and Black Halloween Banner and Orange and Black Halloween Banner

(Sept. 2010..I have a current banner for sale on my blog here)
I made these two Halloween Banners out of left over Black scrapbook paper, newspaper, lime green tissue paper and old jewelry of my grandma’s! I love the Lime green with the black. The little white pearls just added a unique touch.
I really loved the idea of repurposing my grandma’s old broken jewelry and incorporating pieces of it into this banner.

Just so fun and different!


I had the cardboard letters but they had a burgandy calico print on them so I painted them black and then added the glitter to make them really sparkle!

So fun!

Here is another Halloween Banner I made out of leftover Black Scrapbook paper, Newspaper, orange fluffy trim, and old jewelry! I gave this one to my cute mom.


Fun stuff huh!

Once again I repurposed my grandma’s old, broken, gold jewelry and just added touches of it here and there.

I am participating in Kimba’s DIY Days!! and Thrifty Thursdays and Transformation Thursday and Falling for Fall at Blue Cricket Designs and Rhoda’s It’s Fall Y’all Go check out all the cute ideas!

    I may be willing to sell these banners. I already gave the orange away but I could make another orange one if anyone is really interested. They did take some effort in makin them so I need to come up with a price.

    If anyone is really interested please let me know.

Happy heavenly Mother’s Day to my mom! How we al Happy heavenly Mother’s Day to my mom! How we all loved her! I miss her funny sense of humor, her fierce love of others, her cooking and desires to always please everyone. Mom had strength beyond my comprehension she was always gardening… moving heavy pots, digging in hard soil and creating an oasis everywhere she lived. Her love of all things French was something to admired. Everyone who ever walked into her home could immediately feel loved and cared for. Mom worked tirelessly in her chocolate company right up until just a few months before she died. Her sacrifices for us were uncountable. I love my mom and all she was and did and especially her faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. Here’s to all the moms past present and future and to all the sacrifices, teachings and loving us even when we drive them crazy. 

Loving and missing my mom! ❤️
