As a grand opening for my new studio space, I decided to throw a Spooktacular Studio Soiree for my friends, family, and clients, complete with Jim’s creative Halloween treats and my DIY vintage Halloween decorations. In this first post, I want to break down the surprisingly simple, DIY decorations I created to decorate the treat table.
In the style of a soiree, I waned to make sure everything was elegant in style without loosing that spooky atmosphere. As a result, my Halloween decorations prominently featured black materials, with fun ageing techniques and plenty of ghoulish details.
My aunt Sandy, cousin Kelly and sister-in-law, Kristin and I had a great time working with simple craft materials and watching as these macabre Halloween decorations began to appear. It was so easy, and the results were phenomenal. They really turned my new studio into a fully realized party space!

1. Paint the books with Mod Podge and cover with crumpled black tissue paper. Then, paint the tissue paper with another coat of Mod Podge and allow to dry.

Your article helped me a lot, is there any more related content? Thanks!
I don’t think the title of your article matches the content lol. Just kidding, mainly because I had some doubts after reading the article.
Having read this I thought it was very enlightening. I appreciate you spending some time and energy to put this information together. I once again find myself personally spending way too much time both reading and posting comments. But so what, it was still worthwhile.
The New York Federal Reserve recession prediction model uses the month average 10 year yield vs the month average 3 month bond equivalent yield to compute the term spread.
I do accept as true with all of the concepts you have introduced to your post. They’re really convincing and can definitely work. Nonetheless, the posts are very short for starters. May just you please extend them a little from subsequent time? Thanks for the post.
