Cute, festive, cheap, and easy to do, even with kids.

Kennedy and I did these a few weeks ago, just for something to fill one of those "I'm so bored" type of afternoons. My favorite! Oh, wait no. I actually start hyper-ventilating a little bit when I hear her say those magic words.
So on one of those types of days, we did this!
We traced out some Halloween shapes onto fun scrapbooking paper, glued them onto BBQ skewers and tied a little green and orange ribbon for some pizazz!
I like that you can use really any scrapbooking paper that goes with your color scheme and make it look festive for that holiday. I thought these would look really cute all lined up in a (covered) window box.
We were doing a little Halloween-style sprucing in Kennedy's room the other day and ended up just sticking them into the existing topiary ball thingies that were in there. Done.
Insta-festive!

simple...I like simple. Right up my alley!!
Good idea! My boys always want to "help" me when I'm crafting and this would be perfect for them-good fine motor practice cutting out the shapes too!
So smart court!! def stealing this idea!
A little scary ( ha ha scary) when you click on a post and see that you have all of the same papers that were used. Love this idea!
I love all the amazingly beautiful papers available today to craft with - such cute pumpkins! Kids love to cut things - great idea!
Very cute idea!

Oh, and did you hook up your entire blog at TDC ... can't swing a dead cat over there without landing on you! LOL!
This is such a cute and clever idea! So many possibilities!
Super cute! Kennedy is a lucky little girl to have a mom who likes to craft with her. Thanks for the sweet comments, friend. The coffee table bench was a $3 yard sale find, picture hunter green with a checkerboard painted top. The heart cutouts on the legs still need to be covered up somehow, but white paint cures a lot!
You are so darn crafty I swear!! Thanx for sharing at THT! Hope your weekend is going well.
Oh my gosh! These are so sweet!
Okay, those are adorable! And yes, sometimes the simplest things are the best. Thanks for sharing!
