BOO

So of course I got this wonderful idea from Pinterest.  You should follow me!  So I made these for about 6 bucks maybe a bit more with candles.  I started by taking a permanent  marker, I tried sharpie and it didn't work, to write the letters on each cup.  When you write on them make sure the handles are going the same direction.  If you mess up just take a wet rag and wipe it off.  To make sure the writing doesn't go anywhere put the cups into the oven at 150 F for 30 minutes after you write on them.  Once they have cooled you can fill them with candy corn.  At the top you can put a candle.  I set a white candle on top of each.  I think this is super cute and I hope you do as well.  Thanks let me know what you think! :D

Fall is in the Air!

So my mother received this burlap bean sack from someone that she worked with a few years back.  To put it to use we decided to make a fall decoration.  We set a Styrofoam circle on the bottom.  Then filled around it with beans.  I think that parts funny because it was a bean sack, got empty, and had beans put back in it.  We then stuck the arrangement of (fake) plants into the Styrofoam.  To wrap it up we put a red ribbon tie around the top to keep it all together.  Well I hope you enjoy this and maybe even try it out.  Let me know what you think or how yours turn out!
