My kids have had their costumes for over a month, and can hardly wait to wear them. I still don't have the treats to hand out, I usually wait until the last minute because they tend to disappear before Halloween in my house. I have no idea why that keeps happening, I even hide them in my craft room. It's truly baffling.
I made this SPOOKY coaster decor to put on my mantle. (The back says WINTER, but I'll post that pic another time). I love Halloween paper crafts, but people don't usually give out Halloween cards, so this covered coaster decor fulfilled my craft cravings nicely. And I get to use it year after year.

Beautiful Banner! I think I will try this myself. I don't have a lot of Halloween decorations, but I would love to make something of my own. Great job!

I love your "SPOOKY" decor! I'm off to buy our Halloween candy today--hmmmmm--hiding it in the craft room is a great idea! Nice and safe there! ;)

ReplyDeleteWhat a terrific project! I laughed my head off when reading about your problem with "disappearing" Halloween treats! I am sure the same goblin is coming into my house and sneaking a few here too! Funny - my treats are sitting on a table in my craft room too! Thanks for joining us at the Corrosive Challenge and I look forward to seeing more of your great work!
