My assistant and dear friend Penni is a Halloween baby, so she really sunk her teeth into the project I asked her to work on last week! I wanted a board with 31 numbered tags to count down the month for a special challenge for the Song of My Heart Demonstrator Team in October. Look at the AMAZING home decor piece she created!!
There are 31 tags and every one of them is different. Penni used all the resources at her disposal, from years of collecting Halloween stamp sets, mixing old and new together to create a board where every tag is cuter than the last one.
Aren't they amazing?? She gave me the box full of tags a few days ago and I have been SO busy I didn't get to open it until today. She about knocked my socks off! No wonder she kept asking me if I'd gotten around to photographing it yet! I can't wait to show this to the team when we announce our fun challenge for October.
I'm so pleased with how our project concept turned out! Now, would you like to make this board at home? How cute would that be? I got the bulletin board, pre-strung with twine clothesline and some clothespin clips, at my local Kohl's. If you don't have a board or frame, the tags would be adorable just strung along clothesline or clipped all over a curtain, too! Maybe some black garland on a bannister? The sky is the limit!
Many of the products and papers used in this project are retired and no longer available. However, I've put together a list of some super-fun, currently-available Halloween things Penni used, for your convenience. Have a BALL, and I'd love to see pictures when you are done!

WOW! Super cute tags!
Love the board with the strings already on it! Did you purchase it from Kohls recently?
I believe it was about eight months ago, Jennifer. I have seen similar boards more recently at Hobby Lobby, however. Hope that helps!
Please tell Penni her project is AMAZING! Wow!
This is so great. I got a frame at kohls a few weeks ago with the twine and clothes pins. Added burlap to open back and and more pins…using for pictures. Wanted to let people know frames still available. Yeah!! Thinking of a countdown to Christmas!!!
