Front Door: Happy Haunting

**Featured on iVillage
{The Best DIY Halloween Decor
from Around the Web }**

I finally made my Halloween Front Door Decor today when Kate was taking a nap.
I really like how it turned out, even though it wasn't what I was planning on doing in the first place.
I have other plans up my sleeve with using that fun Orange with white polka dot fabric!!
The middle of the bat is from a card that I made years ago and I just "repurposed" it. 
It says "Happy Haunting" with orange bling around it.
I printed off the bat from Graphics Fairy.  She has some fabulous Halloween Pictures to download!
I traced my patterns onto my trusty ol' foam core that I always have around.
I used a Christmas Magnet board that I have as a template for the background.  I always thought it looked like Halloween design to me. :)
Have a great day!

    That is adorable. It's funny that it was a Xmas board - I thought you cut it like that to look like the bat's wings. Nice combo of fabric & embellishments.

    I really love how you used so many layers and put all the black and orange over burlap. Love that contrast! Thanks for linking up and sharing your inspiration. It's one that everyone can make and it's awesome!
