Some finished projects...

What a beautiful and sunny day we were having here in New Brunswick! I guess we are still getting some Summer weather before Fall sets in. They are calling for 31 for tomorrow, Friday, and 28 for Saturday and Sunday. YEIH!!!

I have been busy working away on my some of my projects. I got them all sewed and stuffed up and now have been busy painting. The first project that I completed were my two sets of Candy Corns along with a very cute black crow. I decided to package them up together in groupings of three along with a crow and stained and rusted up. How much more Halloween can you get???

I am FINALLY having my Yard/Craft Sale that I have been wanting to do since the beginning of Summer. It starts tomorrow morning at 10 am and I will have it right into Sunday till 4pm. I know I will be tired I am sure from such a long weekend but it will be well worth it. I am hoping to sell all my junk and that the Sale with be sucessful! There is plenty for sale for everyone. I will make sure to have my camera with me to take some pics to show how full it will be. There is plenty for sale...come one come all...

The next project that I completed was this cute little ghost shelf sitter. I made two, one for sale and one for myself. Abigayle is getting so excited for Halloween seeing me working on my projects but does not understand how far away it still is. She remembers the fun part of getting candy. She is just to cute :)
Of course this weekend I wont get much more done due to being busy with the Yard Sale. But that is OK because all the other projects are stuffed so all I have to do is get them painted. I actually have my flat head black cat all painted...all I need to do is sew the patch on his face for his nose and sew in the eys. Scuff up the paint a bit and he will be pretty much all done. Can't wait to finish him and then next will be my pumpkins, set of 3. I was even thinking about making some more candy corns...the smaller ones for our Halloween Tree. I thought they and the pumpkins will make the most cutest decorations for our fun tree. What do you think???

I should head out and check out a couple more blogs before heading off to bed. I will check in on a regular basis to see what everyones up to.

Have a very nice weekend!

You certainly are one busy little mommy! I get tired just thinking of hosting a yard sale but sometimes, it must be done. And the money doesn't hurt either! lol
That little ghost is adorable. And candy corn, m&m's and peanuts are the real Halloween candy at our house. When grandma starts making batches for all the kids, they know it is close!
