Halloween Decorations

We finally started putting up some Halloween decorations over the weekend. 

I used the Duck Brand duct tape for this "Happy Halloween" shout-out!

This is my papier mache spider I made last year. It is made with newspaper dipped in a flour and water mixture. The body and head were made by adding the papier mache to different sized rubber balls. 

The web is created with string I bought from Home Depot. Click here for the old post. 

A quick Sharpie doodle I did entitled, "Life Can Be Wicked Fun." 

I used exactly 45 yards of duct tape which includes one large heart.
Still more to come....

Maya loves to read books with references to Greek mythology. I guess the apple doesn't fall too far from the tree... I always loved mythology myself, ever since I learned about it in elementary school. I still remember the diorama I made in 5th grade, using one of my Barbie's as Pandora. Well this year for Halloween, Maya wants to be Athena, the goddess of wisdom, courage, and strategic warfare.

This is Athena's helmet I made with cardboard and newspaper.

This is how I started:
