Boo To You…

A Versatile (like us here!)

Halloween

Craft for your Interiors!

Yes, it’s the time of year for Ghosts and Goblins!

In order to celebrate this always fun and haunted event we have designed and created a handmade DIY craft for your Interiors.

Some like scary decor at Halloween for their home interiors but, I prefer something cute and fun!

When growing up and watching Amityville Horror Movie-1979 (trying not to date myself) and having nightmares of Ghosts trying to… steal my morning cup of coffee!!! (what?? get away!!!) lets leave it at this for those who have watched the original movie.

Cute and fun Halloween seasonal decor is how we prefer it!  We do however, add touches of scary every now and then!

Boo! Are you scared?

The fun part about decorating this time of year is the uninhibited way you can decorate your interiors.

There are no rules for Halloween decorating except for our “Family Rules Poster” which you can purchase in our Shop! (it easily fits into a standard 24″ (61 cm) x 35 3/4″ (91 cm) frame.

You can find these frames at the famous Swedish blue & yellow logo Retailer

you know the one that once you enter… it’s a trap to get out!!!

BOO to You!

Using these hooks the Boo to You Ghosts can be placed in various applications.
