Hello, I'm Autumn! :)

So it's been a little bit since i've posted and I apologize, but sometimes life just seems to get busy! The good news is I have a new blog post for you! YAY! :)

This is some crafty things to do in the fall!

First, Pumpkin Carving! And what's not to love about this nifty little art. Not to mention you can turn it into a jack-o-lantern and light up the night! And if you are in RI, or nearby you should totally check out the Roger Williams Park event, PUMPKIN SPOOKTACULAR! It's breathtaking!

 Second, Fall Leaf Flowers! This one is simple, and fun. First go outside and grab some leaves! Then wrap them around each other until you make a flower shape! Then secure them with a stem made of duct tape! They are pretty and they smell nice!








Third, Creature Masks! With Halloween just around the corner these are fun and bring out the imaginative side. Simply blow up a balloon to the size of your head. Then wrap the balloon with strips of paper mache. I suggest going around it three times so that there are a lot of layers. Make sure you don't go over the end with the knot! Let it dry for about 24 hours then you can pop the balloon.

After you pop the balloon cut the ball of paper mache in half. This will give you two halves, one which you can use as the mask and another for extra parts! Decorate and have fun with it! You can use paint, beads, glitter, or anything else you might like!
And if you don't want to do that, felt is always a good substitute for a mask as well! :)


Happy October! ((^.^))
