Halloween Printable Craft Project



Hi everyone, I am the #2 blogger of the 4 creative divas and I have a very easy craft for you.   This craft is using one of the Halloween printable that is offered in the blog.  I made a cute little Halloween plaque.

1. Start with a board that fits your printable, Make it big enough to have a border around it.
     ( I used MDF,  you can get it at Lowes or Home depot,  but you could use any type of wood.)

2. Router around the edges. Or if you dont have a router sand the edges to make a nice rounded edge.  Take a hammer and distress the edges a little.

3. Spray with a black spray paint and let dry.
      ( I used matte finish)

4. Use a thin coat of  Mod Podge to adhere the printable to the board.

5. Cover with a thin coat of Mod Podge let dry.
    ( I used two coats of Mod Podge)

6. Decorate with embellishments of your choice.
 ( I took  4 inch pieces of various Halloween ribbon , twisted it, and wrapped a brad around it. Then I glued it on with craft glue.)

I attached a small block to the back to make it stand up. You can put picture hangers, or staple a ribbon on the back for a wall hanging,  or use a small easel for a table piece.


Don't be afraid to try a new craft for Halloween.   When you get finished and it looks really scary, that's great, that is the way you want it.
