Easy Halloween DIY: Fright Night Fun!

For a quick and easy Halloween DIY project that’s spooky and fun, you can hardly beat this biscornu-style project! Owl Hallows’ Fright Night uses symbols to play with meaning and perspective in a visually striking way. And yet, none of the elements overwhelm the others. Its sense of balance around the perimeter is offset by the psycho spider’s web, and the off-center spider at the core. Those elements help to make it a delight to stitch, and it comes together fast. I think you’re going to love it!

If you’re wondering about its finished size, on 14 ct aida it will be about 6″ square. Accordingly, it’s just about the perfect-sized centerpiece for any of this season’s DIY Halloween decor.

• Put it in a trivet for your party’s snack table!
• Or stitch it on higher count evenweave, back it with seasonal fabric and it’s an ornament!
• Or even stitch it twice on any fabric for a biscornu!

Quick, Easy, Colorful Halloween DIY!

Although the owls look GREAT stitched with any solid floss, for an easy Halloween DIY  a good variegated or overdyed floss could bump the Spooky Factor up to 11 and above. For instance, if you’ve got a frosty silver mood in mind, I’d suggest trying Threadworx Seven Dwarfs Mine. On the other hand, you could try Shades of Chocolate if you want a warmer, more rustic look for the finish. And undoubtedly, on a black or dark gray fabric this piece will totally POP using Porcelain for the owls!

Of course, the freedom to customize the owls means this will stitch up beautifully on any color of fabric, including the ever-popular mottled or tie-dyed offerings. Subsequently, you can pick and choose, mix and match! After all, All Hallows’ Eve is a time when everyone  wants to get their freak on, and that definitely includes an easy Halloween DIY for your cross stitch! So what are you waiting for? Make with the clicky and get yours on today!

The full retail price for Owl Hallows’ Fright Night is $6.95 USD. Click to buy yours now!
