Simple Halloween Crafts

It won't be long until Halloween and I note some people are already thinking about ideas for decorations. I just want to share an idea I had last year to make 'spooky jars' which give off an eerie glow and really add to the atmosphere at Halloween. All you have to do is find a suitable black and white photograph. Here I've used a picture of what I like to think is a haunted house, but I also find that old pictures of Victorian seances can look particularly creepy. Trim the photograph so it fits along the back wall of a clean jar, fill the jar up with olive oil, screw the lid on and then decorate your jar with some old lace and trinkets. The oil gives a vintage effect and seems to magnify the photo, which is quite effective. It couldn't be simpler.
