October crafts!

Come to Carla's and get ready for Fall and Halloween!

Carla is hosting a craft session and lunch at her house,

Oct 15th at 10:30am.

Please RSVP.

Here's what we're making!




Felt pumpkins
Cheesecloth ghosts

what you need to bring:

Felt pumpkins:

1. Felt-- as many colors as you'd like, the smaller pumpkins are about a 8 inch circle of felt, the larger ones are more like a foot and a half -2 feet.

2. Fiberfil batting

3. Yarn (you can get matching colors of the colors you use in felt if you want, I just used cream on all of them, for the most part you don't see it at all)

4. Doll Needle or a long needle that yarn will work with

5. Sticks (you can also use brown felt rolled up and hot glued if you'd rather have a felt stem)


Cheesecloth ghosts:

1. Cheese cloth {find at grocery store or specialty store like Shackfords}

2. Elmer's liquid glue

3. Foil and jar, balloons or anything to shape your ghost around

4. black paper/felt/fabric if you'd like to give them faces

Nothing smells better than a hot homemade apple pie.

Amanda was a wonderful hostess! A fabulous time was had by all and lunch was yummy. I think Amanda might have done more dishes than apple pie making and we all really appreciated her preparation, instruction and help!
