Freaky Friday Framed Creepy Halloween Dollar Tree Portraits

For the next four Fridays I will be featuring
some of my Halloween projects on what I like to call "Freaky Fridays".
Today's Freaky Friday feature is Dollar Tree Halloween Portraits.

 I do not receive any compensation from Dollar Tree,
but I love DT and don't mind tooting their horn.
All scary portraits in this post came from DT (and of course were only $1.)
The outside pics I just trimmed to fit metal frames that I already had.

 This was my fave, I had this ugly 1990s oval frame
with a floral print.  I spraypainted white directly over the glass to cover the flowers.
That provided a nice base to apply the clear adhesive portrait to.

 I cut the zombie pic out of it's plastic "frame" and glued it inside this
actual frame.  The sturdy frame makes it look so much more authentic.

This bride and groom pic was leftover from my DT stash last year.
I loved the old fashioned look to it, I am not sure
if DT will carry these this year.
Sold the larger pics for $12.

  1. Love it. In her former house, my daughter had a rogue's gallery of "wiggle pictures" of skeletal, zomby-looking relatives that I scored @ Michael's. Neverthought of "real" pictures! Love decorating for Halloween...I just don't buy the candy early....
