Halloween Lantern

This is one of the crafts I have been working on. My entry way shelf is coming along pretty good.


I got the rats at the Dollar Store (of course).





I bought this lantern at the thrift store for $2.00.  I painted it black and decorated it with stickers and cheese cloth.



I really like the eerie effect


and the bow.



Happy Haunting.
Rhonda
