BOO!!!


I saw this idea in a book and I knew I had to try to make one of my own, I usually don't decorate for Halloween I mainly stick to the Fall theme that way I am able to leave things out until Christmas and even then I put more snowmen things out so that I am able to leave those out until after New Years. Anyways on to my BOO project, these are made from chipboard letters that came from Hobby Lobby. I used mog pog to adhere the paper down, and bought some Halloween ribbon that has spider webs on it to tie the letters together. This is a very easy project, I am doing another one right now that I will post in a few days for Thanksgiving. It will be more of a challenge to get the letter together. Stop back by and take a look!! I am fairly new to blogging hope you enjoy looking around!! I am going to try to start making videos if I can figure that out before long, if anyone knows a great place to learn please let me know. I have a camera to video but not sure about the editing stuff. Thanks Kelly

Magnetic Board

Here is a magnetic board that I made. I seen the first one at Angie's blog over at Chic n' Scratch. They were very easy, you just need to be very careful not to cut your hand on the edge. These boards are made with step flashing (I think that is what you call it) I bought it at Lowes in a roll, it came 10 inches wide, and had my husband cut them so they measure 10X10. Out of 1 roll I was able to make 12 boards. I covered them with a pattern paper on the front and plain paper on the back. The flowers are punched out of the scraps of pattern paper I had left over. I made one for each co-worker, one for my mom and sister. If you have any question let me know. Until next time.. BYE!!
