I was so happy the dimensional fabric paint gave me the effect I wanted. They came out exactly as I had pictured them! I used dimensional fabric paint and began to apply the paint on the top part of the masks and then began to run the paint down (as if the blood was dripping down them). Then, I really wanted to do something a little more eery and decorate some of the masks with blood. I had these foam ball shaped ornaments I bought on clearance last year and I applied glitter and feathers to them to go with the theme.

Together we embellished the spiderwebs and masks with sequins to give them some sparkle and dimension. Their enthusiasm and concentration just melted my heart! (now if they could only do that when they pick up their toys) The best part about this experience was that my kids got totally into it! We have been working on our Fall Bucket List for the past couple of weeks and this gave me another opportunity to do something unique and fun with them this season. I got feathers, roses, cute foam spiderwebs, dimensional fabric paint, sequins and ribbon. Then, of course, I headed to Hobby Lobby to find some inspiration and craft supplies. So, the first items I needed were masks and I was able to find these gold, silver and white masks from Party City. And frankly the best place for it was our dining room! I’ll be honest, I have never done a Halloween Tree before, but the first idea that came to mind was to create a Phantom of the Opera/Masquerade Inspired Halloween Tree. Plus, it is pre-lit so setting it up and plugging it in only took a matter of minutes. It was easy to assemble and incredibly full. It has the perfect sheen making it such an elegant and shimmery tree. Gorgeous! I love it because it is not like most black trees you find in stores. I quickly fell in love with the Obsidian Black Christmas Tree.

I mean, the sooner I can get a tree up and decorated in my home, the better! Amiriiiight? So when Treetopia reached out with the opportunity for me create my very own Halloween tree, I was overjoyed!

We love Christmas and Christmas trees and lights and ornaments and…. Okay, so if you know me and my family and live anywhere near us you would know that we are known as the Griswolds of our neighborhood, because every year we have the brightest house in the ‘hood.
