Easy DIY Halloween Wreath

When witches go riding,
and black cats are seen,
the moon laughs and whispers,
‘tis near Halloween.

{Free} Halloween Tags

Tags have so many uses and make a creative addition to any treat or gift. 
Halloween is a long awaited holiday at our house. Our kids start talking, months in advance, about what scary creature they will dress up like and what they need for their costumes. I will admit that I do like to dress up, but my favorite part of Halloween is making all kinds of fun crafts and treats. Tags are one of the cheapest and easiest things to make. These Halloween tags are a fun way to spruce up your Halloween treats this year. They are easily printed, cut out, and tied onto any jar or baggie full of your favorite goodies, with whatever ribbon you have lying around.

I’ve had so much fun decorating my porch for Halloween. The newest addition is the stacked pumpkins that I have been wanting to make for a year or two.







I finally collected enough fake plugin pumpkins. And I had so much fun with my youngest little helper putting this together. It turned out so cute.






I have it plugged into a timer so it comes on every night for a few hours. {I lOVE coming home to all those spooky grins after dark} HERE is the tutorial I used to make it by Craving Some Creativity.

Rustic DIY Wood Crate Centerpiece

Fall is in full swing here in the Eastern corner of the Beehive state and I’m loving all the colors!
I have a simple DIY project that only cost $10 to make. This rustic wood crate / tray /caddy. It is the perfect size for our table and is easy to move or rearrange when its time to eat or play games. It fits just about any size of pumpkins or gourds for the fall season and can be used for other seasonal decor as well. {Its nice when decor can be used for more than just one season}

DIY Chunky Wood Frame

One of my favorite things to decorate with are chunky wood frames… but they can be really expensive and I just can’t justify spending money on them.  So I made my own…

DIY Wood Lamp

I have wanted to throw out our old metal lamp and get a wood lamp for a couple years now.  I searched forever to find a large wood spindle to make a lamp.  I found a few online {used and new}… but they were very expensive and more than my budget.  So… I had to find a way to make my own wood lamp that would stay within my small budget.  I did a little searching and found these great sofa legs at Lowes… $7 each… I can handle that!
