Halloween Door Decor & Halloween Link Party

October 1, 2012 By 19 Comments

Last year, this little project of mine was an afterthought, so I didn’t even bother to write up a post.

Over the past month, this photo “went viral” on Pinterest. So I figured, my darling skull door knocker craft should kick of my 31 days of Halloween and our month long love song to all things Halloween.


I had no money to blow on Halloween decorations last year, so off to the dollar store I went.

He needed a major facelift.

If I’ve learned anything in my 2 years of blogging, spray paint cures all ills.

Here he is.  In all his glory, showcased on my front door.


 It took all of five minutes, and it’s sure to creep out my trick-or-treaters…

    Your door knocker is perfect and deserves to go viral on Pinterest :) I tried to add the party button to my post but it just created a small (outline) box … no text or graphics, so I just added a link back to the party … I’ll try adding the button later, its so cute I hope I can get it to work! Thanks for a fun party.

    Thanks for the great party! I added a specialty party linky to my Best Creative Linky Parties on the Web Page. I’d love it if you linked up this party. Hopefully, it will send more participants your way!
