A haunted birdcage? Yes..this one most definitely has started to look it!  I have some guaze ghosts, bats  and goblins in  and flying witch( attached to the  full moon)  ...all ready for the haunting time!
I am used an old birdcage, twigs, mini lights and accessories...along with black sprayed moss... to feature my Putz Haunted house I made ..which was inspired by  the gals of the Delphi P&R board, when I joined their putz house swap last Christmas.  .
What better way to begin decorating for Halloween than to make your own   decorations? Something to build a tradition for your family and friends to celebrate for years to come!
 On Halloween night, I will cover the treats table with cheesecloth  and place an unpolished pewter tray in the center  with used candles from around the house to cast a ghoulish glow on  the goodies.
No Halloween is complete without glowing Jack-O-Lanterns. I Used found objects to decorate, mainly from rummage sales this year...this bird cage being one of them.   
Happy Haunting this Halloween!
