Halloween Crafting Craziness

I really can't take credit for any of this. I am not a crafty mom...I have to rely on other people's creativity, but that's okay cause I'm a really good at copying. Some of these we did with awesome Auntie, some at school, and the rest at home (once I had stolen the ideas from people at school). We had a really good time, we had a "craft night" instead of doing pumpkin carving and the decorations are still up (yeah, it's Nov. 6th) which is a much longer shelf life than a pumpkin.

They are so proud of their creations. Lily wants to make sure that everybody knows that the paper cone witch is hers, not Connor's!

That and the adorable pumpkin bats were put together by Devyn a couple weeks ago when we had a craft night at her house. It was so much fun!

Don't you love our spider webs and pom-pom spiders? I think those are my favorites. The spooky eye reflection frame actually glows in the dark. Connor's class made those, and it was quite an undertaking. Me and a couple other moms were madly putting the frames back together after they dried before the bell rang. A couple days after I took this picture, Lily put a post-it note on the mantle under the eyes that says "I'm woching you closly, very closly." So freaking hilarious.


Lanterns! So awesome. Connor's class made these. The side partitions are pictures printed on vellum paper, so they look like it's glowing when light hits it. We had so many supplies left over, that I brought one home for Lily to do.
