Halloween Star: Latest craft project

Have I talked about Pinterest before??  Love this website. Finally have one of my sisters addicted to it as well.  Anyway. I was browsing the different "pins" and I found something I just had to try myself. (pictured below)

The directions were pretty simple. Find a Star (found mine at Hobby Lobby), Halloween paper, and ribbon.  Cut and place paper on the star (used both Elmer's adhesive spray and mod podge).  Add ribbon, and voila, your own Halloween star.  Honestly was surprised by the lack of paper options at the store for the Halloween holiday.
Above is my star finally hanging on my front door.  I'm actually very happy with my Halloween star. Love it so much I may make one for each holiday or season...as they come. Probably cost me around 30 dollars to make the star.  Now keep in mind this is a large star, not a small little star. It's about the size of a regular wreath.
Now if I could only finish the other projects I've started.....

That's so cute!! I saw this and wanted to make it as well. You, however, are much more motivated than I am. It looks fantastic!

Okay Emily you have now finally gotten me interested in pintrest. If it has cute stuff like thins on it, I'm all about that. Now if only I could get an account... I'm on a waiting list. Then figure out how to use it.
