    Vintage Inspired Halloween Projects

    Published by Pam Kessler | 392 words. · About 2 minutes to read this article. - 8 Comments

    I don't know about you, but Halloween sort of snuck up on me this year. One day I was lighting off 4th of July firecrackers in the backyard. The next, it's the end of October and the goblins are getting ready to knock on my door for their Snickers Fun Size candy bars.

    So since I haven't done much around the house here, I thought I'd show you some Halloween posts I found on the internet. You know, from people that have their Jack O'Lanterns in a row.

    Jamie at Anderson And Grant made this very cool vintage looking Jack O'Lantern. And get this. She made it from one of those bright orange cheapo plastic buckets that are a staple at the thrift stores this time of year.

    Craftaholics Anonymous has a Free Vintage Halloween Banner Printable for you to print out. Did I mention it's free?

    Kristen at Ella Claire has some Free Black And White Halloween Printables too. Printables are great for last minute Halloween decorations. Now if I can remember to run to Walmart for an ink cartridge for the printer, I'll be all set!

    Jamie at So Much Better With Age made a scary/cute Spider Pillow. Eeek! Can you believe this started off as a dress!

    The people at Brooklyn Limestone have outdone themselves in decorating their house for Halloween AGAIN this year with their Ghost Busters themed house. Man, these people know how to celebrate this holiday!

    And Leo and Jane from Cottage At the Crossroads made a fun Topsy Turvy Jack O-Lantern. Again, made from those cheapo Halloween buckets.

    My Painted Mason Jar Halloween Craft is a super quick and easy craft. Super duper quick and easy!

    I believe this is my one and only Halloween craft this year. I really need to up my Halloween game next year!

    You can check out other fall posts on my Halloween and Fall Pinterest boards.

    In other news, I went to a barn sale yesterday and I may have bought another Thermos!!! This could be becoming an addiction!

      How clever these people are! I see those cheap jack-o-lanterns, and think: Ooh, how cheap. I guess I've never seen past their cheapness. Now I wish I had!

      You might want to look for a group of thermos-aholics to join, my friend...

      Glad to know someone else is behind on the
      Halloween decorating. Can't get the gumption
      to do anymore than the tiny bit I have done.

      Those posts are great!
