We made a
house-o-lantern. With a little help from mom we got some cardboard taped together big enough to
snuggly fit over the girls bedroom window. We then drew a jack-o-lantern face on the cardboard and cut it out.
Here it is!
I spray painted it black.
Then the girls taped some orange tissue paper over the holes.
This is their bedroom window in the daytime. Pretty neat. They won't be able to see out until after Halloween but - oh well. No, I used painters tape and taped it up minimally so that we can take it down and put it up when we want to.
We were so anxious. I ran out at dusk to see how it was looking.
This is what we get after dark. We are
sooo far away from the road it takes a big decoration to be seen. This one you can see!!

This is so awesome! We saw the idea in our Family Fun magazine and wanted to try it, but didn't have a big piece of cardboard. Now we HAVE to find some! So neat!
