If you are a craft blogger you’ll want to hear about the new conference “SNAP – Creativity at your fingertips”. The first conference will meet in Salt Lake City, Utah on April 19-21, 2012. So you have an entire year to plan, BUT getting your tickets now will save you some money. From the website:

We inspire one another and when we connect in ways that comfort and sustain, it is something truly extraordinary. That is why we launched SNAP – a community where imaginative bloggers can come together; learn from one another and walk away invigorated. The hallmark of this community? A three-day conference April 19-21, 2012 in Salt Lake City, Utah, targeting the best bloggers representing modern handmade, contemporary craft, mind blowing events and DIY.

Garage Door Halloween Decorations

This Garage Door Halloween Decoration project is such a fun way to make a big Halloween statement without needing to decorate the whole yard. Instead of a small wreath or porch sign, this idea turns the entire garage door into a spooky silhouette scene, complete with witches, pumpkins, trees, cats, and creepy Halloween shapes.

I really like this one because it has huge visual impact from the street. The black silhouettes against the pale garage door make the design easy to see, even from a distance, and it gives the whole house that haunted Halloween feel without being too gory or scary. It is perfect for families who want something dramatic but still fun for trick-or-treaters.

This is also a great project if you enjoy cutting your own shapes from cardboard, poster board, foam board, or lightweight plastic sheets. You could keep the design simple with just bats and pumpkins, or go all out with witches, trees, ghosts, black cats, and cauldrons. Add a few outdoor spotlights or battery lights nearby and it would look amazing at night.

What makes this project especially clever is that the garage door becomes the backdrop, so you do not need a lot of expensive supplies to fill a large space. It is bold, budget-friendly, and very customizable.
