Halloween DIY

Anyone else SUPER excited for Halloween? I am! Here is a pretty simple DIY for you to try for your own decorations.  I got the idea from some decorations I saw at Target.  They were the store decorations and not for sale so I thought I could make something similar at home.

Supplies needed:
Cardboard or some other strong material
Exacto knife
Cutting mat
Black paint and brush
Lights

Take a pen or pencil and trace a spooky scene.  I picked scraggly trees, grave stones and a house on a hill.  You can draw whatever you like! Then, cut your design with an exacto knife.  Mine got pretty dull by the end of the cutting process so you might need a refill. I took black paint and painted the scene so it looked more like silhouette. I put it up above my cupboards and lit it from the back. I love how it turned out!
