I had a blast with this project and I'm totally in love with the final result! My finished wreath is approximately 11 inches, quite small. I started with a 5 inch styrofoam circle and wrapped it in dark packing tape (because it was white and it would show through the tulle). Then wrapped strips of tulle until they were snug and fluffy all around. The width and length of the strips will depend on the size wreath form you use and how big you want the finished size to be. 


The base for my tag is Spellbinders labels, and the 'boo' sentiment is from the My Creative Time, Treats for my Sweet collection.
This lovely 3D skeleton cameo was a last minute addition I ran across while getting groceries. I love it! It adds just the right finishing touch. This is by Jolee's Boutique.


Handmade paper flowers and matching stick pin. Raven is a quickutz die, heat embossed black on black.

All of these flowers were made with the My Creative Time rolled flower die.

I had some other ideas and time left, so I made these cute little candy creations to leave for my mail lady. I think they came out pretty cute! These are made from Hershey Nuggets. {Crafting is the excuse I use for buying them, so whatever is leftover, of course I must indulge! Can't let it go to waste, can I??!}
