Halloween Fever!

I love decorating for holidays. I usually go all out (on the inside) for Halloween and Christmas. I got out all my decorations and realized I didn't have enough for our new house...so what do I do? Make some of course. This cute witches' boot I copied from my neighbor...I love how it turned out. I just don't know where it's home will be yet.

My neighbor and I made these on one of our crafty days. She got the idea from a blog (for the ghost and pumpkin) and we expanded it by adding a spider and Frankie!

I love this banner made from burlap. Thank goodness for my cute neighbor Karen. This was another idea I stole from her...We are going to end up with the same decorations...she says she doesn't care :)
After making "boo" I decided I needed an "eek" too.
I've had this for a while now and never really loved it.....

Now I think I love it!! I can't decide if I want to do anything more to it. They're cute but kinda plain. We'll see.


And for the finale...I bought these blocks years ago and they really just aren't cute. I don't know what I was thinking. This year I decided they needed a little tlc. So a few supplies, a few days and little tlc and we get:


I love love how they turned out. And I did each word longer than the first so I can stack them if I want like so, but right now I have them separately in different places in the house. I love having both options.


I'm in the process of making the girls their halloween costumes. Nothing too exciting but I'll wait until Halloween when they wear them to do a post. Until then Happy Haunting.

  1. I love it all. It makes me want to take pictures and post all about mine. Holidays are the best and I am so glad we are crafting together. It's so much more fun with two! And I really don't care if we have the same things....I think it's fun. Let's plan a day to make the felt food. I think I am finally done with all my other projects!
