House-O-Latern


I've loved this idea from Family Fun for years, but haven't got around to actually putting it up. I bought an orange table cloth yesterday and put it up today while the kiddos were doing homework. I just used duct tape to tape it inside the window and free-handed the cut-outs.  I can't wait to see what it looks like at night.  Do you think I should pull out the fan-shade thing and add eyebrows up there?


UPDATE: These pictures aren't great.  The face shows up much brighter in person.
 No Eyebrows

I think they're a little high, but I'm all out of plastic tablecloth, so I'm declaring it "good enough".

Please link up your ideas to my party here.

  1. I think you should pull out the fan-shade thing and add eyebrows! But I also think it'll look great either way, especially at night.

  11. Cute! Thank you for sharing this idea, I've never seen that before (it has been too many years since my kids were little to remember anything in Family Fun lol). Looks like I need to go on a hunt for an orange plastic tablecloth now!
