Two For One Craft


This time of year is my most favorite!  Also it is my most favorite to make crafts.  It just gets a little cooler outside and the kids are in school.  Plus a lot has been going on in my life and crafting is a stress reliever.  

So I pinned these cute candy corns last year and I have been itching to make them.  I also pinned these jute Christmas trees.  They both require Styrofoam cones.  Make the Christmas trees first using the cones as a mold and then wrap the cones in yarn and voila!, you have a two for one craft!

Here is another super easy Fall Craft, I say Fall because I think this one could be left out until Thanksgiving also.  I bought a fence post at Home Depot and a nice young man cut it up for me right there.  I made six of these pumpkins.  I put three on my porch and then three in my house.  Also there was enough left over to give 4 to my friend.  So buy a post and call some friends over and get your craft on!

Pumpkin Link ( I did not use spray paint.  I used craft paint and a stencil sponge that was a circle for the polka dots.  I did layer my paint colors.  Like I put orange under the white so when I sanded them a bit the orange peeked out.)
