Saturday night was Halloween. Our neighborhood has so many kids come through for trick or treats. We gave out over 150 pieces of candy! After the rush was over, I went to a costume party as a bat. I made the costume from a long-sleeve black shirt and a couple of black umbrellas that were disassembled and sewn along the arms and sides of the shirt. It gets topped off with a cat-ear headband with the points of the ears squished down to be more round and bat-like and some black grease-paint on the nose.
It was a long night, so Sunday called for something that a tired brain could accomplish. These tealight snowmen will become ornaments or magnets. The LED tealights came in packs of two at the dollar store. The “flame” got a coat of orange paint to become the carrot nose, and the rest of the face is drawn on with a permanent marker. The strips of fabric used for the scarf were from the scrap bag. I really didn’t feel like setting up the ironing board for such a small project, then I remembered a friend had given me one of those hair-straightening irons. Running the crumpled strips through it pressed them quite nicely. I will be using this trick again for small ironing projects.

I love your ideas! You are so crafty and clever! 🙂
I wish I could take credit for most of them, but I find a lot of inspiration in what other people have already made.
🙂 I’m glad you share the projects, Its in sharing your giving 🙂
You are so creative. I get so much inspiration from your blog 🙂
Thanks! It has been interesting doing the 365 challenge this year. It has forced me to find something to do each day which makes me jump around a lot since time and mood sometimes dictate what I can work on.
Oh my goodness your snowmen are super cute
I saw these at a craft show last week and immediately wanted to make them. It was such a simple idea.
