My family attended a neighborhood trunk-or-treat Halloween party this weekend.  It was so fun seeing all the kids we attend church with dressed up as their favorite characters.  The nacho bar was really yummy and so was the dessert…as were the candy bars I snuck from my kids’ Halloween bags (;  My favorite part was [...]

I have been waiting impatiently for pumpkin doughnuts to come into season…yes, I realize they’re not a crop (; I picked up these goodies at my local bakery.

This dainty little Halloween wreath came to us during a blooper craft attempt, actually. We were trying to create a scrunchy, full wreath from cupcake liners for our Elmer’s krazy glue challenge last month but quickly learned it didn’t stick to the liners {d’oh!} so we busted out the Elmers fabric & paper glue instead and [...]

We ♥ wreaths!   They’re the perfect way to bring the current holiday/season into your home.   Our challenge was to create a wreath using Elmer’s Krazy glue.  Sounds easy enough but keep in mind Krazy glue works best with metal, plastic, glass, ceramic, etc.  This project encouraged us to go outside of our paper/fabric element so [...]
