Gold Frenchie Skeleton supplies

Paint a Gold Halloween Dog Skeleton

To start this GOLD French Bull Dog scene, grab your favorite spray paint – mine is Rustoleum’s Metallic Gold spray paint.  I gave my dog skeleton French Bull Dog skeleton + Bull Dog skeleton – – (Cute puppy | Beagle | Barking Crazy Bones Dog / Mini Dog / Mad Dog) two or three light coats of gold paint for a solid even coverage.

While my little Frenchie was drying, I got to work also painting the Witch’s Cauldron.  I always have such a hard time finding a basket or bowl large enough to hold all of our Halloween candy to pass out.  

Last year I made this fun Colorful Fall Basket but this year I am definitely going to try using this gold Cauldron.

Adding cute Skeleton details

The next step for my Halloween French Bull Dog skeleton + Bull Dog skeleton – – (Cute puppy | Beagle | Barking Crazy Bones Dog / Mini Dog / Mad Dog) was for her to get her sweet little hair bow.  

I cut out a bow shape from a piece of scrapbook paper and gave it a slight curl on each end.  I then used a hot glue gun and attached a black yarn pom pom to the center of the bow.

Once that was ready, I put one small dot of hot glue on Frenchie’s head and glued the bow right down.

And if you are looking for a dog skeleton costume, these two are great : Dog Skeleton Sweater + Dog Skeleton Outfit.

I shared earlier how to create these gorgeous Pastel Pumpkins.  I think they work so well with creating a cheerful but neutral backdrop for the show-stopper, Frenchie!

And these precious miniature Witch’s Potion Bubble Bottles (Potion Bottles (empty), Halloween Bubble Wands, Halloween Bubbles) are not only so cute, but they make for amazing sugar-free, no candy trick or treat items!  I only wish I had more than one box of them.

How could I forget to mention the perfect Wizard black rimmed wizard glasses addition!  I love that they have a slight Iris Apfel / Harry Potter vibe to them.

I painted the cauldron gold of course and then stuck little Halloween coloring and activity books in my caldron with BOO Ghost napkins peeking out.
