Halloween Apothecary!!!

I saw this idea on the Idea Room and loved it, so I started my own. The labels came from The Love Manor. I have one more bottle I need to add and some spider webs, but I thought it was a good start! Fun addition to my other Halloween decor!







EEEEEKKKKKK!!!!!

I made this cute Eek at a Super Saturday activity. Happy Halloween!

Board

I have been wanting to make one of these for quite some time. I went with Shanna to buy the supplies for hers, so it got me even more excited! I finally got the supplies and put it together. I made mine a little different. I put a corkboard on the left, the glass in the middle, and metal on the right. I have Halloween pins on the corkboard, and I made some Halloween magnets for the metal. In the middle I drew a calendar on the back of the glass so it will not erase (eventually I will get vinyl instead). I put Halloween paper behind the glass, that way I can switch it out each month to go with the month! Now I just need to hang it up and put it to use!

Cute Magnets!

A lot of people have made these cute magnets, and I really wanted to make some. Well Melissa (also on this blog!) has made them before so she told me how to make them. Thanks Melissa!
Glossy Accents was a great way to make these!
These magnets are really good. They actually work! You also use these flat marbles.
First you put a drop of the glossy accents on the marble
Then you put it onto your scrap booking paper and smoosh it down so the gloss goes over everything. You can see the bottom right one the gloss isn't everywhere and the others you can't see the gloss cause it's all over.
Melissa told me to put the marbles on first cause all the marbles are different sizes and you can cut them out after they've dried so you don't have to match them up after you've cut them out.
Then you cut them out and use a little super glue on the back and put the magnet on the back, let it dry and then you are done! The only thing I wish I would've done different was put less super glue on because I put too much and it seeped through so you could see it through the marble. But other than that I liked how they turned out!

Grocery Bag Holder

I found this great grocery bag holder tutorial at Make it and Love it here. We were just using one of those reusable grocery bags (not exactly what they are for, but oh well!) Well I had some scrap material (finally a post that has different fabric, well at least it feels that way!) and I decided to make one. I messed up on a couple things, and I didn't do a ton of strips I just did three, but I like it! Enjoy!

Key Holder

When we moved into our house we got I swear ten thousand keys. We were just putting them in a glass container and I could never figure out which key was which. Well I decided to make a key holder. I would've just bought one to hang up on my wall but we didn't have any more wall space next to our door, so I made this. Well I made it too late cause we already lost a couple keys and we didn't put some up cause we don't need those so we put them somewhere else. Anyways here it is!I used one of those magnetic bag clips that we bought from Ross. I took some ribbon and purse clip things and the fabric that I love! I cut a piece of the fabric that would cover the clip, then sewed the ribbon in a loop with the purse clips in so they would stay. Then I opened the magnetic clip and put the fabric in so it would say, then I took some other fabric and tied a bow around the top so it would stay as well. In hope this all made sense. It's a little hard to explain, but it works for what we need!

Ute Pajama Pants

My husband is a big Ute fan, so I decided to make him some Ute Pajama bottoms. I just got a pattern from JoAnns that was cheap and then got the fabric from JoAnns too.

I think he liked them!
