Here's the supply list and where I got everything:
Star was from JoAnn's for 40% off
The 4.5 inch wood squares are from Hobby Lobby. The come in packs of 2 for $1.50
The polka dot paper came from Michael's. It was on sale, can't remember how much but you only need one sheet of it.
The ribbon was also from Michael's, also on sale
The chipboard letters were the most expensive thing. They came from Hobby Lobby and were $6.99 for a pack. I used my 40% off coupon. I can't do math, you figure it out. And yes they do come with the rhinestones on them. Darling.
The dangly thing at the bottom was from the Christmas ornament section at Hobby Lobby. It was $1.99
And I got a sheet of black felt to glue to the back so my door doesn't get scratched. It was less than $0.25 at Hobby Lobby.
Other items I used that I already had were black Martha Stewart glitter from Michael's, black card stock, white card stock, white spray paint (you can also use white acrylic paint but it will take lots of coats), black acrylic paint, Modge Podge, glue gun, and sticky back rhinestones.
If you want to make it really inexpensive, don't get the star, just tie a bow at the top with the ribbon and hang it from the bow.
Paint your squares white. Then paint the edges of the front black. Cut out the polka dot paper to measure 2 x 2.5 inches and paint the edges of that black too. Apply Mod Podge to the back of the paper, then adhere to the center of your wood squares, and glue the letters on top of the paper.
For the glitter stripes, I cut strips of black card stock 4.5 inches x .75 inches, covered them with Mod Podge and then with glitter. I spaced them out evenly on the square and then glued them down.
Then glue the ornament to the bottom square. Finally cut 3 squares of felt and glue them to the back of your wood squares and ta-da! A fun Halloween door hanger.
