Faux Window Pane

Somewhere in Craft Land made this cute sign that looks like a window pane:



How fun would this be to decorate like you are looking out a real window.  You could even switch it out for each season.  And all it takes is a piece of wood (or MDF) and some chair rail.

Candy Corn Message Board

Amy from Then She Made created the cutest candy corn message board:


and when Halloween is over, instead of putting it away you flip it over:


and you have a cute Christmas tree message board.

LOVE IT!

Halloween Goody Tubes

Kimberly from The Muddy Princess made these cute Halloween treat holders with some of the most basic craft supplies, crepe paper and toilet paper rolls:


It is too bad they don't celebrate Halloween at my kids school because this would be such a fun project.  You can see how she makes them HERE.

String Pumpkins

Clumsy Crafter shared these cute pumpkins she made on Show and Tell Saturday:


They look perfect on their cute candle stick pedestals! This fun string and starch technique can be used for lots of fun things (like Easter Eggs in the Spring), so you will want to check out her tutorial HERE.

Pennant Wreath

I love this wreath I found on Milk & Noodles:


Of course I love it because it is a wreath and because it has a pennant garland attached, but I love it even more because you can keep the same wrath up all year and just change out the garland and hanger to match the seasons.  Which also means you don't ever have to store a wreath!

You can see the tutorial for the pennant garland HERE.

Ghost Towels

Love these cute towels from The Long Thread:


You can download the template for the faces HERE.

So Easy It's Scary

I found something from The Pink Peony on 320 Sycamore that I love:


The whole display is really cute, but I love the framed sign that says boo.  I love how simple it is!  So easy!  So easy it's scary!

Specimen Bats

Remember this cute display from Jen at Tatertots and Jello:


My favorite piece is the bat specimen chart on the bottom.  I found another one like it at Sweet November:


A few larger bats in some great black and white patterns!  I love them both!

Halloween and Fall Garlands

I love love LOVE how many garlands popped up on Show and Tell Saturday yesterday!  And some that weren't garlands, but I thought they were!

Love Stitched shared a treat that her sister was going to give to her class for Halloween:


Not a garland, but I thought it was.  And if you used the paper circles to attach the fangs it COULD be!!

Everybody loves Raymond and Kat made the cute ruffle-y circles on this banner out of crepe paper streamers:


Another cute project from Crafts by Amanda that isn't a garland, but that could be!  And a really cute one at that:


Jamie from C.R.A.F.T. has a TON of cute garlands on her blog, but I love this one that she made from paint chips:


This plaster leaf garland from Take the Side Street is one of my all time favorites, probably because it is white, but you could paint the plaster if you don't love white as much as I do:


Burlap is a great material for Fall garlands. Lipstick and Laundry made this cute leaf garland with burlap:



AndAshley's Thrifty Living used burlap for these pennants:


You need to check out the orange striped pillow she made too!

If you have a garland for fall or Halloween, I would LOVE to see it!  Leave me a link in the comment section!

Candy Corn Wreath

I love this Candy Corn Wreath from Woman's Day:


The black that peeks through gives it just a little more Halloween kick!  And I love that they used black duct tape!!

Spider Web Lace Pumpkin

White pumpkin 


Spider Web Lace

I like VERY much!! 

The black stand isn't bad either!  Or the scary raven.  Or the cute labels on the glass bottles.  It is all pretty great.  You can check it all out over at Starshine Chic

Halloween Light Fixture Make Over

Char from Crap I've Made used some cute little vinyl bats to add a little Halloween spirit to her everyday light figure:


I love that the yellow color makes it look like they are flying in front of the moon.  Char is making it really hard for me to resist buying a Silhouette!

Spider Web Table Runner

While we are talking about spiders, I thought I would show you this spider web table runner from The Crafty Cupboard:


Looks like a perfect place to put your spider cake plate, and the spider web itself is just made from felt and a homemade template!  Almost as easy as the cake plate!

You can see her tutorial HERE.

String of Jack-o-Lantern Lights

Kasia from Dream Home used old baby bottles to make this cute string of jack-o-lantern lights:


I know the kids would have fun painting the faces and they would be great outside around my front door.  Now I just need baby food jars!

You can see how Kasia made them HERE.

Wood pumpkins

Some I have already shown you, like this stacked pumpkin from Brown Paper Packages:


But more and more keep on popping up all over the place.  Here are a few more that I love.

Crafty Chic Mommy:
A Little Knick Knack


and Taking Time to Save a Dime:


I know there will be more and I can't wait to see them.  If you have a wood pumpkin project on your blog, please shoot me an email and I will add you to this list.
