Halloween!

These were my Halloween bags last year. They are witch's brooms filled with candy! I go the idea from Martha Stewart's website: http://www.marthastewart.com/photogallery/halloween-treat-bags-and-favors#slide_11

I did mine a bit different...I used black pipe cleaners for the sticks and the ties instead of wood. I also found a witch template on the Internet and cut out witches and attached them to the brooms. I also used alphabet stamps to stamp out little tags that say Happy Halloween.

They didn't turn out as cute as Martha's, but the kids seemed to like them.

    The witch bags are so cute!!

    If you're on facebook, you might want to make a page for your blog.
    http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#!/pages/create.php
    If you choose Brand, Product or Organization, there's a Website choice in the drop down.

    Also you can use Networked Blogs on Facebook
    http://apps.facebook.com/blognetworks/index.php?ref=ts

    It will automatically post your blog posts to your wall... and to the wall of your Blog Page... if you make one.

    I look forward to seeing more of your blog posts!

    This is my blog if you're interested in checking it out. =)
