This week's party continues here through today.
Pink has become a core part of Halloween in recent years and is on display EVERYWHERE in craft and home decor stores. I'm even planning to include my pink tabletop tree I used for Valentine's and Easter this year, into my Halloween decor.
I'd bought some pink glitter HTV (heat transfer vinyl) to use for Valentine's Day, but life got in the way. There's no such thing as wasted craft supplies, though, so I grabbed it for this project.
Supplies:
- Ornate Frame (Dollar Tree)
- Waverly Chalk Paint (White)
- Decoart Acrylic Paint (White Pearl)
- Vinyl (Doesn't have to be HTV)
- Embellishments
NOTE: I was originally going to do the frame in black but, I ended up not liking it and didn't re-take pics. I used Waverly Chalk paint in white instead. Paint your frame (I picked up a few of these ornate frames from Dollar Tree because...you know!) and set aside.
Remove the backing and dry brush with paint of choice. I used Deco Art white pearl which I got at Dollar Tree.

I wanted a simple background.
I chose a ghost image from Cricut Design Space and cut using the pink glitter HTV (Michaels). You don't need HTV but it's what I had in the right color. You can use regular vinyl. If you do use HTV, remember to mirror your image!
Here's the white frame and you can see I let some of the gold peek through. Reassemble, then decorate!
I grabbed some clear and iridescent gems from my stash, using black rhinestones for the eyes, and then went around the bottom of the ghost with large gems and dotted the background and frams with smaller ones.
The iridescent gems look like dimensional drops on the ghost, and it's hard to see in pics, but they add just a little oomph to the frame. To finish, I added a bow of iridescent tulle. Easy. Peasy.
Happy Pinkoween!
