DIY Halloween Costume

The Incredibles!!

We had an early Halloween party to go to so I got our costumes done last week.

Here is what I did:

I found Mom and Dads sweat pants and long sleeved T at Wal-mart for $6 each.

Dash's T and pants also Wal-mart for about $4 each.

Jack-Jack onesie at DI $2.

I painted the logo on our t shirts with crafts paint like this:

For the Gloves I used regular knit gloves from Wal-mart and cut the feet off a pair of socks to make them longer. 

For the boots I pulled the same type of socks I used for the gloves over our shoes. For Dash I folded them back over to make them a good size for her. 

For the masks I used this tutorial.

If you are better with a sewing machine than I am, here is a tutorial from someone who sewed instead of painted on the logo. She also has a tutorial for sewing the black bottoms.   

Heartfelt Wall Hangings

Over the weekend my mom and I visited our new favorite craft store! Heartfelt Wall Hangings is a cute little vinyl and craft shop in West Jordan Ut. Each month Heidi offers a free craft  related to the fallowing month. This month it is a Thanksgiving craft. She offers classes each day where you can come to her shop and work on your free craft and any other crafts you purchase. She offers all her paints, sander, glitter spray and help to make your vinyl craft.

This is her free craft for October. Is simple yet so cute to get your home ready for Thanksgiving!

While we were there we found these cute blocks too!

Each month the "O" changes to fit the season or holiday. I will be going back in November to make one with a ornament and snowflake for December and January. Here is an example of each month. 

 

We will be going back for more free crafts and all the other cute ideas they have at Heartfelt!

Holiday Crafting

 I couple of weeks ago my friends and I got together to make this found on none other than Pinterest. So when I went back to Utah I made something similar with my mom. It's super easy, cheap and turned out really well too.

 We bought a 4x4 at a hardware store for around $8 and had them cut 2 at 12", 2 at 10" and 2 at 8". Sanded and painted then added White vinyl cut with the Cricut machine at 1.5". I decided to take the craft from the link above and make it my own so I cut out a star from scrapbook paper using the Cricut and ModPodged it on. We made one for my mom and one for Makenna. I mine at home already.

 Since the 4x4 came in 8' pieces we had a ton left over, so we cut these. I think they are 9" and 7" in length. I like that each one turned out a little differently.

 

 Mom wanted crazy letters.

 We made Mak's just simple and cute.

The only difference in mine is capital letters.

We sure had fun making these together. Thanks mom for a great time and letting me make a mess of your kitchen table.
