Sitting down to write the recap was hard today. The weekend was rainy and while it was great and fun, I felt meh about the whole thing, you know? And since there’s a crafty holiday coming up, I thought I’d try to help you me wiht some creative inspiration. I’ve rounded up this year’s cutest and seemingly (I use the term lightly) simplest Halloween Crafts to pull off:
{Clothespin Bats : Women’s Day}
{Wild Thing Costume: Sewing Pattern by Running with Scissors}
{Dino Tails: A tutorial by Running with Scissors}
{Animal Felt Masks: Mahalo on Etsy}
{Hitchcock Hallowee: Wildwood Flower}
{Crafty Templates: Country Living}
{Slithering Wreath: Martha Stewart}
{Mary Poppins & Chminey Sweep: by Keiko Lynn}

/ October 4, 2011here’s a little game that may make some of us underachievers ( not you two E&A!) feel a little bit better about Halloween: who wrote the following?: “Halloween? “There were no costumes. There was no anything. We turned off all the lights and pretended we weren’t home,”

/ October 4, 2011PS. if my kids ever grow up and write a tell all book, there will definitely be a passage about me peeing with the door open…to me this is equal to a declaration of love. Can i pee in front you you = yes = i love you forever.
But really, who makes their kids wrap their own presents?!?!
Annabelle
/ October 4, 2011I agree 100% about the peeing thing – when I read that first excerpt I though the next few would be just as lame… but Nooooooooo… the wrapping-your-own presents thing is definitely a shocker, coming from a woman who dedicates books on ways-to-wrap gifts!

/ October 4, 2011Are those book extracts for real?? What?! I love it.
Um, the Mary Poppins/Dick VanDyke costumes are the best and the meat hand is the creepiest thing i’ve ever seen.

/ October 4, 2011ok. those quotes are HILARIOUS!! Martha’s responses are equally and uncomfortably hilarious!
@meghan- I want to make those hands so badly!! imagine how grossed out the kid would be??
