SPOOKY JARS

There's a full moon tonight . . . 
which makes it a perfect night to do some Halloween projects.  
A wonderful group of friends came over tonight.  Normally this group of women arrive with a book in tow, ready to discuss our latest choice for book club.  But tonight they came armed with printed pictures from the Graphics Fairy, excited to make their own version of the dishes found in the latest issue of Country Living.  Some of those photos from Country Living are shown below.  I also blogged about these unusual dishes in late September, hereDinnerware Set: Insects
       

Set of 3 Jars: Spider & Insects
So, here's a look at what the girls came up with for their own little Halloween displays.  Their jars, bottles, and vases came from Goodwill, rummage sales, and one even came from the liquor cabinet!  I think they turned out great!
Below is the jar I decorated with a tarantula from the Graphics Fairy. 
 It now sits on my mantel with some other creepy fare, all ready for Halloween.  Well, almost ready.  I still need a few finishing touches, like spiders coming out of the top of the jar.  Fake spiders, that is!  On October 23rd, this jar, and all the other spooky items on my mantel, will be featured as a guest blog post at:
