Halloween Family Gallery Wall
One of my favorite parts of my home is the Family Picture Wall I created this year.
I love the pictures that my sister Wendy took of our family.
And when Wendy and her family were out this Summer, I was showing her the little house around the corner that I am remodeling. It really was in the “fixer-up” stage and a little bit spooky. We thought it would be so fun to have a Haunted Photo Shoot. So we did!!
I rounded up some “old” looking clothes for my little family and we headed over to the house for some spooky fun.
We had such a great time.
And look at the amazing photos that Wendy took! I love the “ghostly” translucent effects.
Here’s what I did to change out my Pretty Gallery Wall to a Spooky one!
I changed out all of the pictures. I was going to cover the frames with black wrapping paper, but I tried doing that to one and decided that I liked the plain frames better.
Then I took the Subway Art board and covered it with some black and white chevron fabric. I taped it onto the back with some painters tape. I also made a banner with scrapbook paper and pom pom trim.
Then I switched out the chevron “H” frame with a black “spooky” wreath.
I also covered the yellow table with some translucent black material and trim. I added some candles to the table. I love the way the light illuminates up to the gallery wall at night when they are lit. Very spooky!
