Hi Crystal!
Thank you so much for including my pumpkin painting ideas on your post. There are A LOT of great ideas here, I am in good company 🙂 I just found your awesome blog, then saw that you were a former Dallas Cheerleader- WOW!!! I cheered for University of Hawaii and just love finding someone else that was in that world. Keep up the great work, I’ll definitely be stopping by more often and pinning some of your helpful mom-content.
Cheers!

What a great round-up! (Beautiful collage up there, too – you do so well with those!) Thanks so much for sharing at After School, Crystal.
LOVE these ideas!
Here is an idea I have had on my blog since last year and I updated it this Halloween. We have made our own trick or treat sacks and every year we add a hand/footprint on it. This year I came up with also integrating the costume they are wearing with it! You should check it out here! It’s such a great keepsake!

Oh I love this, Colleen! Thank you so much for sharing.
Crystal, I love this round up! I’m not a crafty person, so I love it when someone else puts together a great round up of crafts that I could even do… and most of all, the cost of the projects are low. 🙂 I selected your post to feature tonight at Wake Up Wednesdays! Check it out! http://thetastyfork.com/2013/10/29/wake-up-wednesdays-link-party-10/
Yay Meghan. Thank you so much for featuring this roundup.
And I hear ya. While I enjoy doing crafts, if they break the bank or involve too much thought, I am out. This collection of posts was a lot of fun to pull together.
Thanks for stopping by. Hope you’re having a great week.
