Halloween Goodies


Wanted to share a couple of peeks of a few things I made for the Boo-tique
that I just loved!

Remember the unfinished pictures of these Spooky letters I did up last year for Amanda?
They were so fun I just had to do a couple of sets up for the boutique.  They are fun aren't they!

I was on overload the last few weeks with having company in town for the big BSU/BYU game.
Plus every Saturday morning ESPN's college game day is blasting from my family room
so I had to make some Team letters up.
These little pumpkins I think were my absolute favorite!
I love pear shaped pumpkins, they just make me happy!
My sister and I found the cutest stickers at Michael's from K&Company.
These Creepy tombstones were so fun with the crow and bat flying overhead.
Plus I found the coolest excelsior that matched graveyard grass.
I loved the lightness of papers I used on the Fall letters too.
It's funny how I am actually more inspired helping my clients with projects than anything else.
It's hard to come up with stuff sometimes and these Fall letters were inspired by
by my great friend Cary.
It's hard to believe that the next boutique is just a month away!
Over the past 4 years I have found out that I actually work best under pressure....
I guess that's a good thing!

On a really fun note~I actually took some "ME" time this week
as a couple of my friends who are master tole painters
invited me to have lessons to paint!
I made the cutest Vampire that I'll take pictures of to share with y'all.
He is so cute and not half bad for my first time painting.
I can see how it could become very addicting!
I just love Fall/Halloween crafts!
Do you?

Halloween Boo-tique 2012

It's hard to believe that it's already Fall around here!
FYI~next week is Holiday House's fun Fall/Halloween Boo-tique!
Here's the adorable flier:
Don't forget to "like" them on Facebook and enter for a chance
to win some boutique bucks to spend!
For me~I'm already dreaming of the yummy caramel covered marshmallow treats
that Lovin' Oven cooks up!
Meanwhile I've been busy as ever cutting out witch shoes
and my house is covered with spiderweb yarn and googly eyeballs.....
I love Halloween!
Hope to see you there!

Christ Wood Letters

Well the last of my boutiques finished on Wednesday
and I can say I survived!
Thank you to everyone for all your kindness and support!
Here is my favorite I did this year.
I have the cutest little elderly couple that live across the street from me.
They come and check on me to make sure I'm not working too hard
and a couple of years ago the wife gave me
an old flannel block pattern she had used for her own kids and grand kids
and also now for her great grand kids.
So I'm guessing it's about 50 years old.
I saw a Super Saturday idea for these but it seems
no one on the internet can track down the source
so I knew this pattern would be perfect to create some of my own.
I am a huge fan of making "Christ" the center of Christmas
and I'm always glad for an excuse to decorate that way.
Now if I can just summon the courage to get out the Christmas decorations....

I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving Holiday!
My little family and I went and hibernated over at my parents house,
where I was grateful for medicine for the lovely ulcer I've accumulated over this season,
for yummy food I was able to help cook with my family,
for the peaceful and loving home my parents provide
where I received the rest and comfort I needed.
Happy Holidays!

Holiday House Christmas Boutique

I can hardly believe the Christmas boutiques are already here!
Here's the invite for my favorite one
Holiday House Boutique!

It's only about a week and a half away and I'm
busy busy trying to put the finishing touches on everything.
I did pull out of another fabulous one that starts tomorrow
that you don't want to miss either!
The Brookwood Bazaar
out in Eagle off of Floating Feather and Eagle Road
is a great bazaar with so many talented gals!
I had too many irons in the fire this week
with my baby girl turning 8!
Can you believe it?
So with birthdays and in-laws, school fundraiser and Halloween
all in one week....I decided I wanted to keep my sanity.:)

I promise to post some pictures soon, and not just over at Crafty Sisters.
I've got some really fun elf shoes I'm working on......
Happy Crafting everyone!:)
