For years I got compliments on my Oogie Boogie art piece that I pull out for Halloween and asked where and how I got it. Well I made it! So I figured it was time to make another and document the process to help inspire others. It’s fairly simple, just takes some time and it’s really affordable for a big dramatic piece you can pull out year after year

You’re telling me you didn’t dance on the hospital bed when you gave birth?

The final part and reveal of my Oogie Boogie art!
What I love about this project is that you could make anything! Doesn’t have to be Oogie Boogie- you could do a Christmas outline of some kind…. Which maybe I’ll test out next month. The smaller the board the less time it will take you as well. This board is at least 6 feet and I had to tackle it in small chunks while my babies napped or late at night. But it is something we will keep forever and pull out every October for a dramatic living room transformation. Happy spooky season everyone!

Next up I’ll be showing how I’m building a custom pumpkin arch for the front of my home. Follow along to see 🎃

This is the perfect weekend activity to get out of the house and do something fall themed. The scarecrows are so creative and fun. They have a little scavenger hunt to do along the trail and booths where you can buy tasty treats.
