You bet! If you couldn’t already tell from previous posts, I’m a little crazy about Halloween and particularly smitten by Jack Skellington. I always have a hard time making a Christmas Wish List so in mid-October I suggested to family members they could take advantage of after-holiday sales and buy some fun Halloween things to…

Just a Few Updates
It’s been a looooong time since I last posted. Halloween has come and gone. I had big plans of posting other projects and events I was working on, things that were happening, etc. but time just got away from me as it so often does. Anyway, to bring you up to date a bit, I…
44 Days to Halloween!
Maybe next year I’ll do a craft project countdown to Halloween. Wouldn’t that be fun? I’m hoping to finish a few more projects for this year. I already made my Jack Skellington. I’ve got all the piece I need (I think) to make Sally, but haven’t gotten very far, my witch table is now going…

Barrel Cake
As previously mentioned, my daughter is having three mini celebrations for her 2nd birthday instead of one big celebration which means I get to make three different types of cakes/cupcakes. =) We did Elmo & Cookie Monster cupcakes for the first celebration, and then I decided on a chocolate & peanut butter barrel cake for…
Cookie Monster & Elmo Cupcakes
Last year we went all out and had a huge rainbow theme bash for my daughter’s 1st birthday. It was fun and we had A LOT of people attend. Since then we have moved to a very small town that is 1-2 hours away from the majority of our friends and family. This year for…
