Halloween
Poison Label
Who doesn’t love some good poison? It’s so fun to decorate with it for Halloween, that’s for sure! I took some regular jars and bottles and made some fun labels for using Silhouette’s new printable foil! This summer they came out with new products! They have printable gold and silver foil and then printable white…
Halloween Ladder
I have this super cute ladder that I like to decorate for every holiday. I decorated it for spring/Easter and loved the look of it. I wanted to decorate for Halloween, the only problem was that I couldn’t just run down to the store in Utah (like I did for the Easter one) and get…
Scrapbooking Attitude: DIY personalized ribbon
It’s the time of year to start thinking about Halloween. I always make some kind of neighbor gift for Christmas, but I thought it would be fun to make something for Halloween too. Adding personalized ribbon just adds just the right touch I think and I did that by using a printable film from Scrapbooking…

Pumpkin faces
My mom brought my kids each a pumpkin from her garden. We always want to decorate and carve them too soon though, they always go rotten before Halloween gets here. So this year, I let my kids pick out a face from the Silhouette online store and then we cut it out of black vinyl…
Tutorial Tuesday: Halloween Pillow
I’m going to try to decorate more for the holidays, well the holidays that I really like :). I’m going to attempt to make at least one pillow. I wanted to make it really easy to change the pillow out, so I made a pillow case to go over one of my old throw pillows….
Halloween Tile
I made this Subway art tile for Halloween. I’m so glad that they have no added purple and lime green into the Halloween colors, black and orange can get a little boring and redundant after awhile. I cut the vinyl out with my Silhouette and used my Expressions Vinyl in colors: purple, lime-tree green, orange…

I have seen a lot of candy corn decorations going up, so it got me thinking. After much thought, I came up with this. I was going to make two of them, but then my patience ran out 🙂 This is how I made it: 1) I took a Styrofoam cone (I got mine from…

Whatever Wednesday: Spider Wreath
This past weekend I decided that it was time to change my wreath and make a Halloween one. All I did was wrap orange yarn around a Styrofoam ring and then added spiders. I love the spider hanging in the center 🙂

Whatever Wednesday: Paper Pumpkin
I saw this cute idea here and had to make one! Instead of using 6 inch strips, I used 24 1″x12″ strips to make mine. I punched a holed in each strip and connected them on with a brad on the top and the bottom. Then I added a paper stem and some raffia. Super…
