Grandson's Halloween Coffin Treat Box

 
I made about 30 of these and boy was it time consuming! I used the Cricut to cut out the coffins and I found that paper at a local scrapbook store and then I printed the Trick or Treat on some cardstock and used a punch (I believe from Martha Stewart) to punch them out and added a spider.  I think they went over pretty good.  I used miniture candy bars and other candy to stuff them with.  I also gave these to my co-workers.  Bad thing was the black paper kept coming apart i guess my adhesive wasnt strong enough to hold it down. So I had to use black electric tape around the bottom of the coffin and the tops to keep their shape.

My "S"

I bought the "S" at Hobby Lobby and I love this paper, so I added the flowers that I also bought at Hobby Lobby.  It is hanging up in my Office at work.

Wreath I made

I have been playing around with making a few wreaths! This is one that I made while I was off on my Christmas vacation.  I will have to take a picture of the Christmas Wreath I made.  I was pretty proud of myself.  I thought this turned out quite well.  Now I am gonna try to make a wreath with our house numbers on it and flowers.  I saw one on pinterest.com and I really liked it.

Flower's for Hair

Here are a few pictures of flowers I made for a Christmas gift.  I had a great time making these! Except for burning my fingers with that hot glue gun, that was definately NOT fun!  And YES that is my grandson modeling the flowers! LOL
