I love making my own decorations for Christmas, Halloween and Easter! I get a lot of inspiration from Pinterest, Dollar Tree, Hobby Lobby, Grandin Road and other places like those! I also get a lot of inspiration from Disney, Tim Burton and Dr Seuss. I love the whimsical style and I also like to combine vintage and modern.

[@fatalbewitchment]

Love it! How long did you leave the foam to dry in between?

[@TheSecretCraftRoom]

I like to leave it over night to be sure it's dry, but it probably dries faster than that 😊
