The Sweet 2021 Halloween Addition

The preparations for Halloween have been in the works for a few weeks, and, now, it's time for tricks and treats!! Here we go!!

The new installment of decorations this year is something I actually made a couple of years ago! The Hub sent me a picture he found on the internet of small pumpkins painted to look like M & Ms, and I HAD to do it myself! Check 'em out!

I already had a stash of pumpkins that are actually beads. I definitely had more than I knew what to do with, but that's what happens when you buy the string of beads on sale:

I painted them with acrylics. Remarkably, there was no prep required for the paint to stick!

Fortunately, My Girl gave me a little floral block that she was going to trash that I had stuck in my supplies because I did not think ahead to how I was going to let these dry! This was perfect!

I waited a day, and then, I went to work on the faces and logos. I used a toothpick to paint the details:

I absolutely love how they turned out!

Next up ... the rest of the decor and celebration!!
