Halloween Wreath Ideas

 

Here are some great ideas to create a jaw dropping wreath everyone will be asking about. From gathering tulle on a wire circle, hot gluing ping pong balls together and topping off with moving plastic eyes, feathers and boas and Styrofoam eyes and attaching a series of orange, black and fall colored glass ornaments together to form a wreath. It will be a decoration to use many years to come to great visitors for the season and trick-or-treaters on Halloween night. What ideas have you come up with for decorating your house this Halloween? Send us some pictures and we will post the best.

Halloween Pumpkin Creations

 

These are some great inspirations for pumpkin designs. Goes to show with creativity and not always a carved pumpkin, pumpkins can make a great display with a few props. The painted design is also really nice and can show off your artistic talents as well. To paint a pumpkin: dry and paint with primer (all areas where you want to paint) and then paint with acrylics. Don’t forget to take a picture and send our way!

Hatching Chicks Deviled Eggs

I am always amazed at simple and creative ideas I run across and this is one of them. Simply make your deviled eggs a little different and make them into little chicks hatching. Such a simple a creative idea that your children can help make. Don’t think of this as an Easter idea either, I’m sure a few laughs would come to the dinner table when your family and friends see these and if your child helps, it makes them feel special and incorporated into the dinner as well.

Pin The Easter Egg On Peter Rabbit

On a sheet draw a rough-sketch of a good-sized peter rabbit, the regular Easter bunny, standing on its hind legs, and holding his paws as if it were carrying an egg.

Stretch the sheet on the wall and tack it firmly in place. Cut eggs out of different colored foam or felt to represent Easter eggs. The eggs should be as large as the space between the rabbit’s paws. In each egg stick a pin.

Blindfold the children in turn and give each an egg, which is to be pinned on the sheet, and right in “Bunny’s” arms, if possible.

As the children take their turn, no matter how straight on the way they were started, “Bunny” will be surrounded with eggs, until some child pins the egg in his arms. This child deserves a prize.

A side note… at the beginning of the party let the kids decorate his or her egg with glitter, markers, paint (finger paint) or stickers. Use quick drying glue… let dry and then each kid can wear their egg until the game begins giving your party special decorations.

Use the Easter bunny at the top to guide you how to draw Peter….. BUT….. if all else fails you could draw an Easter Basket and see which child makes it close to helping Peter fill his basket.
