~Skull and Moss vase~

You'll need :

One or more clear vases

(Dollar Tree) $1 each

Bag of moss (Dollar Tree)$1

Mini skulls (Walmart)$3.98

For this project you simply layer your moss and skulls in your clear vase till you reach the top of your vase. Then you just have to find its new home in your Halloween decor and you are done!

For this Project I spent $6.98 for two vases

~Upcycled glitter pumpkin arrangement~

You'll need:

Glitter pumpkin arrangement (Walmart) $5.84

1 glass pillar candle plate (Dollar Tree) $1

1 4" glass taper candle holder (Dollar Tree) $1

1 round tea light candle holder these come in packs of 2 (Dollar Tree) $1

E6000 glue (Walmart) $2.97

black gloss spray paint (Walmart) $1.66

optional: Halloween floral

Without adding the optional floral for this project I spent $13.47

I got the Styrofoam pumpkin at Walmart and although it's cute the way it is, I wanted to bump it's wow factor up a notch. Also, it's top heavy and a little wobbly.

So for this project you're going to take your E6000 glue and glue your taper candle holder to the pillar plate. I chose to flip my pillar plate upside down for this project. Then you're going to glue your round tea light holder to the top of the taper candle holder and set aside to dry fully.

After your glued base is dry, it's time to paint it with your spray paint, I did two coats. While waiting for your painted base to dry if you have chosen to add some additional Halloween floral, now would be a good time to do this. After the painted base has fully dried it's time to grab your E6000 glue again and glue the glitter pumpkin to the top of its new base. Allow to fully dry before finding its new home in your Halloween decor. (You can also use some hot glue to secure in place till your E6000 glue dries fully, like I did in the video)

~Skull "urn" floral arrangement~

I also needed a Dremel-Not Pictured

You'll need:

Plastic skull (Walmart) $3.84

1 glass pillar candle plate (Dollar Tree) $1

1 4in glass taper candle holder (Dollar Tree) $1

1 round tea light candle holder these come in a pack of two (Dollar Tree) $1

5 black and or purple rose bunches (Dollar Tree) $5

1 floral bunch to create height (Hobby Lobby) 40% off $4.19

1 floral foam (Dollar Tree) $1

E6000 glue (Walmart) $2.97

1 can black spray paint flat (Walmart) $3.96

Optional: 1 cascading floral bunch (I got mine a year ago and I cannot remember where...)

Without adding the optional floral

for this project I spent

$23.96

Now you're going to need to cut the top portion of the skull off so you can insert the Floral foam. I used my floral foam as my measurement tool and traced around with a marker. Then I needed to decide how I was going to cut it...? The plastic on the skull I used was too thick to cut with an exacto knife or a box-cutter. So I asked my husband Craig what I should use and he suggested I use my Dremel. Because I had never use my Dremel as a cutting tool before he did this part for me while he was showing me how to do it. I then went in with my Dremel to clean up all the rough edges and smooth it out. Now we can insert the floral foam.,

After your glued base is dry, it's time to paint it with your spray paint. I did two coats. After the base has fully dried it's time to grab your E6000 glue and glue the skull to the base and set aside to fully dry. Once dry we can then start adding the Roses/flowers. I like to start with the Roses first, then the cascading pieces and finally add the height element. Now to find its new home among your Halloween decor and admire your new masterpiece!

DIY Fall No Sew Decorative Pillowcases Tutorial

I'm in LOVE with these DIY No Sew Pillows!!

Be sure to watch the how to Video below!

This post contains paid affiliate links, please read our Advertising Disclosure Statement.

So I have two BIG projects coming up and I was thinking of using canvas dropcloth for them. However, I had never worked with it before. I have also been wanting to make some decorative pillows for the holidays. So I thought, I'll use the canvas drothcloth for my decorative pillows and "kill two birds with one stone". I get my pillows and I get to see what it's like working with the canvas drop cloth! Win, win!! I really love how the pillows turned out and am planning on making some more for Christmas.

You'll need:
Canvas Dropcloth, size depends on how many pillows and projects you want to use it for.
Ink Jet T-Shirt Transfers
Scissors
Iron
Fabric Glue, I used FABRI-TAC
Optional: Velcro if making a deceptive pillow cover.

First we're going to cut out two 16.5" x 16.5" panels from our dropcloth.

Then we're going to create our image and print it out on the T-Shirt Transfer paper. Please follow the instructions included with you transfer paper.

Cut out your image, leaving a small border all the way around the image per transfer instructions.

For the ironing part you need a solid surface that is heat resistant. My current crafting table is plastic and will melt and warp so I grabbed a scrap piece of plywood to protect my table.

Cover your heat resistant surface with a cotton pillowcase and iron out any wrinkles.

Then lay your canvas panels on top of the pillowcase and iron out any wrinkles and creases.

Now we're going to lay our transfer print side down on our freshly ironed canvas panel.

Next, cover the back of the transfer with another cotton pillowcase.

Then Iron transfer per Instructions provided by the manufacturer.

After ironing, let the transfer cool completely before carefully removing the paper backing.

Then flip the canvas panel so that the image is sandwiched in between the two panels.

Now fold up a side and run a continuous strip of fabric glue along the edge of three sides of your canvas panels. Make sure the 4th we're not going to glue just yet is what will be the bottom of your pillow when completed.

Now for what will be the bottom; if you’re making a full pillow like I did, you’re only going to glue the ends of the full opening. Leaving the center (about 5 finger widths apart) unglued. If you are making a decorative pillow cover then you can glue Velcro strips on.

Once the glue is dried per instructions on your glue, you’re going to reach your hand in the unglued opening and turn you pillowcase right side out.

Make sure to really get the corners pushed out. Voila, you're halfway done with your new pillow!

Time to stuff it! Since I'm making a purely decorative pillow that will be in my outside entryway, I have chosen to stuff mine with plastic store bags because I have an abundance of them... Mine as well make use of them for more than just bathroom garbage bags!

Once you've got your pillow all stuffed you can glue the opening closed.

I used two binder clips to hold the opening closed until the glue dried.

Once fully dried, it's time to find its new home in your Fall decor!!
