Halloween! DIY goodie treats

Happy halloween! 👻

I made a quick trip to Target and picked up some goodies, sweet treats, and such. 

In between michaels craft store and Target they fulfilled all my halloween needs. 

I wanted to come up with something sweet for the teachers at Liam's school, I also wanted to satisfy all the little kiddies too! They can't have chocolate or nuts so I settled with some: skittles, fruit snacks and some gooey candies. 

I thought they came out super cute. I grabbed some halloween themed clear bags at Target and made some

Personalized tags at home and printed out on card stock. 

For the teachers I wanted to do something a little different....

I got some good candies, the Reese, Hersey bars, and Kitkats. We know adults aren't into the junk! Got to make those calories count!

I picked up some bucket lateens at Michaels craft (70% off so it was a great deal) got a gormet chocolate chip cookie, stuff with tons of other great sweet treats. A few plastic bugs and spiders and it came together just sweet. 

I used some cute halloween clothes pins I found at Michaels and also were on sale. 

We are halloween ready in this house!! Liam reminded me that I missed a few people at his school; lunch lady, and the helpers. So I picked up a few little goodie boxes and stuffed some sweet treats in there. Don't want to leave anyone out. 

The Chinese box I used to stick some sweeties for my little boy in. He's been struggling to convince me to let him open it already. Silly boy. 

Hopes this inspires your craft side to get spooky. Think about it you get to munch on candy while you put things together. 

Enjoy and have a safe and happy halloween! 

It's Fall!

It's fall and the leaves are falling quickly here in chicago. I am not ready to see winter come. 

Painted some pumpkins for Halloween! 

Liam had a blast. I felt it was more age appropriate too  

I joined in the fun also. 

Liam was so empressed with mine, however I thought it could have been better. 

We enjoyed them for a week or two then this happened....

Yes that's a squirrel eating our pumpkins. 

Which lead to this...

Happy halloween!
