"Spooky" mantle

I love Halloween!  It's the only time I can see spiders without having a little freakout! lol! (I still don't decorate with those big hairy ones you see in the store, though!)  This year I wanted to add something to our mantle...here's what I came up with...

These letters were white and plain when I bought them.  I painted them black then applied a thin layer of mod podge and these Halloween papers.  The next day I cut around them with an exacto knife, sanded them, inked the edges, then embellished them! I really love how they turned out! Here are some close-ups:

As you can see, I used rub-ons, 3d stickers and ribbons to embellish the letters. Happy Halloween!
