Boo!

 The North Forty is just about ready for Halloween!
Two gigantic goofy ghosts stand guard at the front door. 
He sports a bow tie and buttons.
She sports a hair ribbon and tutu.
"Boo" is all fun on The North Forty.
 The ghosts were made from large plastic balls, clearance white fabric, felt, ribbon and tulle.
The boo sign was cut from foam board and painted with acrylic paint.



Colorful pumpkins and gourds decorate the side entrance.

The mad scientist's laboratory/kitchen is a mess,
as Halloween treats are prepared.

Pans of dipped and decorated pretzels 
are ready to be packaged for trick or treaters.
Stick pretzels were dipped in white, orange, and green candy melts,
then sprinkled with Wilton Halloween candy decorations and sugars
or drizzled with contrasting candy melts.


Yum! 

Treat bags patiently wait to be filled for the neighborhood children.
Felt, tulle, paint, craft buttons, scrap ribbon and a little imagination
are all it takes to create these fun bags. 
I'll share how-to's later this week.
Next up - cookies!
