~ Happy Halloween! ~
October 31st, 2009 by Holly McMillen
Ghoul day, friends!
I cannot believe that it is October 31st already! Crazy! Well, we woke up to bright sunshine and fair warmth today. The snow that fell the last few days is melting fast. I am so glad, as I was worried about our little trick or treaters.
Since I only have four young kids in our little court, I decided this morning to make them each a little goodie bag. I have seen these little frankenstein goodie bags all over and thought they would be perfect! I actually made six of them and took a couple over to my aunts’ house for their little neighbor kids, too.
These are so easy to make. It’s all punch work. The nose is a round tab punch, the eyes are three different sized circle punches and the hair is my EK success wavy peirced punch. The front is a 4 1/4″ x 3 3/4″ piece of Kiwi Kiss, sponged on the edges. The back piece is 4 1/8″ x 3 3/4″ of Kiwi Kiss. The bag in the middle is a tiny paper sack (I found them in black last year at Hobby Lobby and snagged a bunch!).
I wasn’t going to do much decorating this year, but when I got to Hobby Lobby this morning, they had all their Halloween decorations at 50% off! I went a little nuts and bought some really cute stuff. Now I have to go decorate!
