Getting Crafty {Halloween Style}

I'd like to think that, when Campbell is older, I'll be that Mom who does fun crafts during the holidays. I think it's a wonderful way to create some memories together. Plus it's just a lot of fun.....as long as it doesn't get too messy because you know I can't handle the mess!!! I came across these cute, crafty ideas on Pinterest and I thought I'd share them with you all today. I like being crafty but I'm not very good at it but these seem pretty simple to pull off.
These Monster Doors are my favorite!! I think it's such a cute and fun idea. If I could find a huge piece of paper, like the door on the bottom left, I would love to do this for my front door this weekend. Anyone know where you can get big pieces of paper like that?
I love the idea of carving a pumpkin but lets be honest, it makes a mess. And I'm not good at it---at all. There's so many cute ways to decorate a pumpkin without carving. This appeals to me much more.
These ghost jars are super cute and would be so easy to do.
The little ghost and witch footprints are adorable! I love the idea of doing one every year to see how much your little kiddos feet grow.
I'm fairly certain the dipped strawberries would be impossible to make but are they not the cutest/coolest things you've ever seen?!?! Since a chocolate covered strawberry is my all time favorite treat, I'm super in love with these Halloween inspired ones. The mummy hot dog and witch Oreo hats look like they would be pretty easy to accomplish.
These Halloween crafts seem so fun to me! Maybe I'll attempt to do the monster door this weekend?!?

  1. "If I could find a huge piece of paper..." HAHA! Go to any teacher workroom and there are rolls of paper in every single color...For some reason it really made me laugh when I read that...I should probably just make a trip when you are ready to be crafty...

    1. Ha! Well, what else am I supposed to call it? It is a big piece of paper. And FYI, one of my neighbor teacher friends hooked me up and I've been working on my monster door today! (It looks just okay) :/
