I love Halloween. As a matter of fact, Halloween is probably my favorite holiday with Thanksgiving coming in a distant 2nd. I have issues with Christmas as explained in this post and this post. Let's just say the Christmas season has reached a near panic proportion that rivals someone screaming "FIRE" in a packed theater. I say when a holi"day" starts lasting for 3 months, something's just not right......
Anyway, although it doesn't seem apparent on the Chaos Blog, things are looking very spooky over here in the Chaos household. We have Spooky Town set up on the piano (constantly being rearranged by Carlos) and Spooky graveyard set up on the front lawn......again, constantly being rearranged by Carlos. Everyday when we get home school and the minute he jumps out of the car, he moves things around and tries to "up" the scariness factor. He was just telling me how he is going to put the fog machine under the tree so it will blow the smoke across the tombstones and we should get a second one to put on the other side of the lawn to make it extra scary. The only problem with his plan is #1......we don't have a fog machine and #2...... I have no intention of getting one. But, I love how he plans away without paying any mind to the details.
Here's is a picture of the Halloween of all Halloween costumes that I did f0r Carlos circa 2001. I reached my peak of cute costumes before he even turned 2.
I saw this costume in the Martha Stewart Magazine and HAD to do it. The BEST costume I have ever seen for a kid. And, super easy.
A couple years after this picture was taken Carlos and I went as Mama and baby chick....
Here's some other stuff I've been working on. I'm using this Crate Paper of which I have one sheet. I just love it. Wish I had more........
Another Pink Christmas Tag.......
Some Gift Bags I'm working on for Etsy......
That's it for now....Talk to you soon! Karin
