I love craft nights...


So me and my girl Kylee got together and made these cute little countdowns for Halloween . They were pretty simple but so time consuming..
They are just cookie sheets that we modge podged with scrap book paper. Then we used all kinds of things for magnets... buttons, cute little brads we found at Ben Franklin, skeleton hands, and glass beads with paper on the back. My kids love picking a new magnet to put on every day. We are planning on making one for Thanksgiving and Christmas too!! Can't wait :)

  1. They turned out super cute! That's so awesome she loves to craft with you... I'm going to tell you a secret... my 23 year old son, Josh, used to scrap with me... in fact we used to teach a "Mom and Me" scrapbook class until one day some of the girls from the middle school came into the store and saw his picture on the wall as a teacher and gave him so much static... he refused to craft with me ever again. I miss it... lol...

  5. Super Cute! You could even put vinyl on there with the numbers of the days! I did one like this and put the number of days on the cookie sheet in vinyl and mixed them all up so every day we had to look for the number! Kids love this kind of thing! :) You did an awesome job!
