Easy Ghost Craft

                                        

GHOST LEANERS

from fence planks

I wanted to make some Halloween Ghost Leaners.

These are used to sit about anywhere you need some decorations,

but without nailing, pushing into the ground or hanging them.

They are easy leaners.

I first just rounded off the tops of a bunch

of varying sizes of fence planks with a jigsaw.

Then I freehanded some quirky "boo" faces on each

and just cut them out.

I also made a few square pumpkin lanterns

with the same wood while I was working.

Here's a group pic of them all.

Then I went and propped them up,

spray painting each side in a Rustoleum white.

This will help seal the wood for a good while also.

And since Christmas is just about 3 weeks ahead,

here's and idea of how you can paint those extra,

vintage Christmas tree bulbs.

I just made a circle in white, painted a little face,

sprinkled it all with spatter white for snow,

and added a wire hanger and some greenery.

FIVE ON FRIDAY from the lil' FARM

Linking up today with FIVE on FRIDAY to share a few random pics of my lil' ole' farm life.

Here's to the farm life ya'll.

I welcome 6 new baby Bantam (we call Baneys) chicks on May 30, 2016!  

I watched ole' Large (I named 3 of them Small, Medium and Large) play "kick the can" with a plastic bucket for about 15 minutes or so before tiring of it.

I was elated when a roll of hay that got away from me ended up FINALLY stopping on a section of barbed wire fencing.  Otherwise it would've went all the way down in the creek. Shew~

I watched as a single deer checked on the progress of the grapevines as I done the morning dishes.

And most off all, throughout the week, I stayed happy despite having to put up with a lot of.....

I hope you enjoyed my week all wrapped up in pics! And thanks much to Amy over at FIVE on FRIDAY for hosting the linkup!

See ya'll next time,
