Broomstick re-do

I am a sucker for HaLLoWeeN,
and all related spooky holiday decor....
well, minus the price tag!

So there I was, browsing the dollar store and spotted this awesome broom.
A little LiGhTbULb went off as I skipped to the Halloween section and found this glittery witch sign.
A perfect pair ;)
Matching holiday colored acrylic paint  +  broomstick + sign = a very witchy project!
Muah ah ha!
[Total cost: $2.24]

Happy Halloween!

    Hi Kelli and Kristi,

    I found your site on a Blog Hop list. Impressive broomstick and impressive price. Can't believe how quickly this year is flying.(no pun..lol). I loved the transformation of the coffee table. The yellow paint is so bright and cheery. I think it is great that you are working with your twin. My sister has four year old twins (B/G) and I enjoy watching their 'teamwork'. God bless.

    This turned out so cute. So you just painted the stripes right on the twig handle? No ribbon or anything? Cool. I love it. Thanks so much for linking up.

    Aaahh, I LOVE Halloween! Definitely my fave :) I got home the other day from Michael's so depressed because I couldn't afford to buy all (let alone any) of their cute spooky decor... the dollar store rocks my socks! And so do you. *B
