Halloween Spooky Tree

Festive Frightful Fun! Free easy to follow instructions for making your own Halloween Spooky Tree. 

 
Materials:
Tree Branch
Terra Cotta Pot
Terra Cotta Paint and/or Markers
Florist Foam
Black Spray Paint
Seed Beads
24 gauge wire
Halloween Ornaments
Popcorn Kernels
 
Instructions:

1. Begin by searching in either your yard or park for a small straight branch with lots of little branches sprouting out. While outside in an open area away from any buildings or cars spray paint the branch with a glossy black paint. Let dry.

 

2. Once branch is dried wrap 24 gauge wire around the main trunk and larger branches. Insert seed beads on the wire as you wrap it around the branches.

 

3. Paint the Terra Cotta Pot with ghosts and pumpkins using Terra Cotta Paint or Markers. I personally prefer the markers for some of the finer detail. The Terra Cotta Markers are very easy to work and I highly recommend them.

 

4. Insert florist foam into the Terra Cotta Pot once it is completely tried. Insert branch into the center of the foam. Then cover the foam with popcorn kernels.

 

5. Place Halloween Ornaments onto the branches and display on your mantel, counter, or as a center piece on your table.
