Wicked 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.

If you like the table runner check out my post on how to make it!

Have you found some cute witch boots?

HaLlOwEeN 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?

What cute candy wreaths have you see or tried to make lately?

Halloween Ghosts





This is a fun DIY that you can easily finish in about an hour or so. They are very easy and a fun project that you can do with your kids if you want to.

Supplies:
-Styrofoam balls- I found mine at Joann's
-Black felt square
-Cheese cloth
-White thread to hang the ghosts
-Pins

The first thing that you want to do is cut two eyes and an oval shaped mouth out of the black felt. I wanted bigger eyes so I cut bigger ovals out for eyes. After your eyes and mouth are cut out take some pins and stick them through the eyes into the Styrofoam ball.

The next step is to open up your cheese cloth and measure out how long you want the ghosts to be. Then take your scissors and cut strips at both ends of the cheese cloth to make it more stringy. Once you have all of your strips cut then you find the center of the cheese cloth and place the ball with eyes underneath the cheese cloth. Once you have your ghost made all you need to do is use some white thread and hang your ghost.

I love how these turned out! They are such a cute addition to my Halloween decorations.

What kind of fun DIY decorations have you come up with for Halloween this year?

Halloween Table Runner




Okay this project took longer than I thought that it would, but that is okay because I think that they turned out so stinkin cute!

A cute Halloween table runner! I also made them to go in and on my china hutch. Yup I am all matchy matchy. 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 am going to make just the table runner for Thanksgiving and I haven't decided if I will make everything for Christmas or just the table runner.
They are so cute though!

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