Halloween Round-Up

I love the holiday's and Halloween is no exception. I usually spend a lot of time getting ready for the season by creating new decorations to add to my already mounding stash of loot, however this year I am so close to baby #5 coming that I don't have the time or energy to start anything new. 

Even though I don't have anything new to put up this year that doesn't mean that I can't keep my eyes open for new fun things for next year.

Here are a couple of ideas for Halloween next year!

 

Skeleton and trees. I love the colors, it goes so well with what I like and have! I found this here.

I am always looking for a cute new way to decorate pumpkins. I think that this is the cutest idea and I can't wait to try this. I found this here.

This is so cute! A Halloween count down that sits on your front porch. I really want to make something similar to this. I found this here.

I love this cute idea for table decor. I found this here.

Candy Corn Wreath

I finally finished one of my many projects for Halloween this year. I have so many and I kept on running into problems with other projects that I felt that I was never going to get done, so I got a simple one done today and I feel better. Just a little bit better. I think listening to Christmas music while I worked helped :)

This is so easy to make. What you will need is a foam wreath, lots of hot glue some ribbon and candy corn. I used two bags.

All you have to do is hot glue the candy corn around the wreath and when you start a new row switch the direction of the candy until you are done. Easy as that!

Once you are finished with the wreath it will look like this:

Add some cute ribbon and tie a cute bow. I used my Bowdabra to make the bow. And all finished ta-da!! It didn't take that long and it is cute. Why did I wait so long to make one of these?

Witch Boots!

I think that one of my favorite places to get ideas and crafts is the Wood Connection. That is where I found these cute witch boots. There's were orange, but I wanted mine to be purple.

They were fun and easy to make. I think from start to finish they took maybe two hours and that was giving them time to dry and me having to help my kids every once and a while.

I like them. I am glad that I made them. Check out the Wood Connection if you haven't. They have so many cute things there.

Halloween Table Runner

This is the cute table runner that I made for Halloween two years ago.

 I found this tutorial from Pinterest and I thought that it was simple enough to try it myself.

The cool thing about this table runner is that you are quilting it as you go. If you can sew a straight line then you can make this!

This is what it looks like after I finished the quilting while sewing it together. Then you trim the edges and bind it together. It was so simple.

I promise that if you try this you can do it to. Let me know how it goes.
