Made this halloween decoration for my sister-in-law. The photos don't convey the 'ick' factor. It was seriously nasty hanging from a tree branch, in the dark, blowing in the wind.
I used stuff I had laying around in my craft stash ~bought at thrift stores, garage sale & of course a bit of dumpster diving ~ so the cost was pennies. I just kinda played around and made a few with different materials till it felt done.
