CraFts from Around the Corner

 I LOVE both of these ideas!

I would definitely use a Black Light spotlight 

for the Dresses.

Then, I would hang a few from the Oak Tree

so they swirl and whirl...

The cool thing is you can make any shape.

oooh, a Cat.

 

These should be a must~do for any kiddo 

doing Halloween Celebratories.

Easy and fun.

I better start saving my cardboard rolls right now....

Crafts like these send me right back 

to Childhood.

HaLLoWeen Silicone Molds

These are the first Silicone Molds I have ever used.

Meh.

The idea is beTTer than the actual outcome.

 I tried using buTTer and Oil for the molds.

 The buTTer just didn't work that well.

Apparently, you have to LIBERALLY douse with Oil 

to get a good release.

I did use the Golden BuTTer Cake Mix

which may have also been the problem.

It's a very thick, FLuFFy batter

which made it difficult to 

place in the molds

and to find a comfortable amount

of baTTer fiLLage.

I feel like it would have worked

mucho better if I had used 

a more fluid batter.

All in all,
I would try them again.

Happy Halloween

Carveth the PumPkins

Tricketh the Treats

and rocketh the Charlie Brown

Damn gOOd night!

Caramel Apples and Apple Crisp...Oh Halloween How I LoVe thee

Simply Delicious.

Glammed Up Halloween Decor

 I still LoVe these simple wooden decorations. 

They are SO versatile!

VERSATILE! 

which means, 

you probably won't run out of ways to decorate them.

One big checkmark in their favor is they are very inexpensive, and very abundant 

in art craft stores.

They are perfect for The Womb Weebles. 

 

I've seen many people over the years
who do Halloween Trees, 

and these would be a FanTasTic way to dress it up.

I had a couple of the pumpkins left from the Classroom Project last year {alas, so far, no projects this year.}

The charming Bat has been in my possession a few years.

Let's play dress up.

things needed for Object de Halloween Art

*************

 Wooden blanks in Various Shapes

GLiTTeR! a given!}

Glue of your choice, I used trusty Elemers

Colored Ink {or paint}

Soft paint brush

String for hanging

 

Start by staining or painting your Wooden Shape. 

Remember that these type wooden pieces 

will really soak up the liquid, 

so work quickly to spread the Color.  

The wood will damp, so to dry mine 

I set it under my work bench light.

Once the wood is dry, break open the GLiTTeR!

I used the Glitter on the PumPkin 

to imitate the grroves and vines, 

and just followed the curves on the Bat as you can see. 

Try mixing shades of GLiTTeR for a deeper effect.

 

Tie string on after dry, and Le Glammed Up Decor is good to go.
