Trick or Treat: A Spooky House is the perfect class for those who would rather stitch than cook up Halloween treats for those fall ghosts and goblins. You will be able to create a delightful Halloween Candy House that will last for many years, is completely guiltless and won't cause tooth decay.

The three dimensional house is stitched on 18 ct. White Mono Canvas and consists of 4 sides and a roof. It is "decorated" with candy corn, icing, candy, spiders, chocolate bars, spooky trees, ghost, goblins, bats and pumpkins. A variety of threads including Splendor silks, Ribbon Floss, Kreinik Metallic, Silk 'N Colors, Sparkle Rays, Hi-Lights, and Flair are used to create this nearly edible illusion.
