Halloween Bonus Project

Hi again,

This was truly a creative moment. I was cutting out the middle of the O's for my BOO sign and thought that they would make cute door knob hangers - and they did.

Here is what you will need:
  • The middle of the O's from the BOO sign - or - a foam core oval covered with Halloween themed scrapbook paper.
  • Xacto knife
  • Ribbon
  • Emery board
  • Silver Sharpie or other paint pen
Once you have you ovals, smooth out the edges using an emery board or small scissors.
Next, cut two small squares for the ribbon at the top of the oval when it is landscape.
Here is what the end result should look like.
After that, knot the ribbon through one of the squares. Use the rest of the ribbon to measure the appropriate length that you want it to hang on the door knob.
Cut the ribbon to the desired length. Note: I used the same 1/4" polka dot orange grosgrain that I used for the BOO project. After you have attached the ribbon, use the silver Sharpie or paint pen to write the desired Halloween message. I chose "Trick or Treat."

Here is the end result.

Enjoy! Don't forget to make it your own :)
