Caution:

My head is spinning with the Halloween and Fall inspirations all over the blog world.  I am more motivated than ever before to put together some things for my own house.  And yes, I would say that's a good thing!

I have admired the jars that have scary labels on them, and since I love re purposing glass jars already, I had to give it a try.  Karen from The Graphics Fairy has some terrific labels, and I printed them immediately.

For the glass jar, I used my StazOn ink (in black) and a paintbrush to swirl inside my glass.  I was going for a creepy smokey look.  What do you think?

I cut out the label and inked the edges.  I crumpled it up a few times to make it look worn.  I used Mod Podge to put it on the jar.

I had some black leather-like cord, so I braided and tied it around the top of the jar. 

I knew that I had some spring flowers in my basement, and I got inspired! I took them outside and spray painted them with oil rubbed bronze paint.   Spring colors were not going to cut it for this vase.  I wonder if my neighbors thought I had lost it?  Hmmm...

At first I thought I would paint the flowers again, but I really love how you can see some of the original colors coming through.  

I know I said I'm not a big fan of Halloween, but I'm truly enjoying these seasonal projects. 

Happy Sunday! 

Like a puff of smoke I'm gone....to link up at these great places...
