DIY Wooden Pumpkin Decor

Sometimes, I neglect the orange and brown, warm fall colors in decor. I tend to jump right from Spooky and dark Halloween (like this wreath, or this adorable door sign) into the gold and brown tones of Thanksgiving that I’ll eventually transition into Christmas. This year – I’m working a bit harder to stop and noticeRead more

Free Printable Halloween Coffin Boxes!

This project has a little bit of nostalgia for me. In my high school (forever ago!) student groups would sell “PumpkinGrams.” They were little scraps of halloween themed paper taped to a candy bar, sold for a dollar and delivered to whichever friends you chose. I remember being so excited during 6th hour on the lastRead more

Pumpkin Grams

When my husband and I first started dating we were in High School. My High School allowed student groups to sell something called a “Pumpkin Gram” during the Halloween season in order to raise money. Basically they were little strips of paper you paid $1.00 for, and on Halloween they were delivered to whichever friendsRead more

Spooky Time!

Since I’ve been posting a lot about all of my Halloween decorations and getting all sorts of great ideas from tons of places, I’ve decided to share my final results. (I say final, but I know that between now and Oct 31 I will add to this collection.) First up are some table decorations I’veRead more

Spooky Straw/Sucker/Cupcake toppers [Free Download]

I really adore the idea of handing out special treats to every trick-or-treater this year. I’ve been wracking my brain tring to think of something that would make them smile. While I’d love to make tiny little treat boxes for every child, (and still aspire to), I have to admit that might not pan out.Read more

Halloween Countdown [Free Printable]

Its already October. So its time to start counting the days left before Halloween! I’ve always been a big fan of the “Days Until” count down blocks. Like These Christmas ones on Little Birdie Secrets.  However, working with wood is not my strong suit- and I’m likely to want to change it up again nextRead more
