A Vintage Graphic and Copper-Toned Paint Became Framed Halloween Art

I changed the kitchen artwork for Halloween with a vintage graphic, a painted canvas board, and bats and spiders. The materials were ones I had, and the project took about fifteen minutes.

How to make your own Halloween art

A graphic and a board cut for the frame

I chose the graphic from The Graphics Fairy. I singed its paper edges with a lighter over the sink for the aged appearance.

The large white canvas board had cost $1.99 at Hobby Lobby. I measured it for the frame and cut it with a craft knife.

Penny-colored paint, then black

I wiped penny-colored craft paint over the board with a paper towel, then rubbed black over it. Light sanding added to the worn surface.

Mod Podge and small Halloween details

I attached the graphic to the board with Mod Podge and added bats and spiders to finish the display.

The orange-burlap fall artwork was another version of the kitchen corner. My framed recipe artwork uses a stencil instead of a printed graphic.
