One more Halloween Project???


Hope you don't mind if I squeeze in one more Halloween project...


I found this wooden thingy at the thrift store and it's shape looked a little too familiar...I couldn't resist painting it up.  First some black primer and then a couple coats of chalkboard paint...


My kids will have fun changing this face...at least 100 times tomorrow for sure :)


I added the little tag with the leaf for fun.  Treats anyone???


And check out this old photo...


"I didn't eat those Ho Ho's...really I didn't".  Isn't she sweet with the evidence all over her face :)  Love it!

Hope everyone has a Happy Halloween...we're still preparing our Candy Land decorations for Trunk or Treat at our church tomorrow night.  Did you see the Life Savers I posted yesterday?  If not, you can see them HERE.  Like I said, I'm having a little too much fun with all this...I'll show you pictures when I'm done :)

Another "Sweet" Idea...Trunk or Treat Life Savers :)


We volunteered to decorate our trunk for "Trunk or Treat" at our church on Halloween.  We decided on a "Candy Land" theme...and here's a fun little idea I couldn't wait to share...


First I took jello molds and added foam stickers...
(I noticed afterward that the real candies say "Life Savers"...ooops!  Too late now, don't tell the kids :)


Sprayed them with primer...


Some of the letters were popping up so I glued them down.  Do this before spraying the color on.  I learned this the hard way with the orange "candies".


Spray with fun glossy colors and ta da :) 


Like I said, I made these for our Trunk or Treat display...but they look kinda cute in my kitchen too.


What do you think?

Well, lots more to do...I'll take pictures on Halloween when it's all set up and ready for the kiddos. I think I'm having a little too much fun with this :)
