Craft Halloween Blog Hop

Hello fellow crafters! Welcome to the Craft Halloween Blog Hop hosted by Craft Junkie Too! If you just hoped over from Kristi @ Craftin' on my Door, you're in the right place! If you're just stopping by for a visit and would like to hop along, be sure to go to Tracy's blog to start at the beginning.

Today, we were asked to share any Fall or Halloween project with you guys. I will be honest and admit that I didn't make something special and adorable just for the hop, but rather took a picture of the very quick gift I put together for my Boo Buddie at work this week. Every day we gave them a small surprise worth $1-2, but I couldn't bare to not wrap it, or make it somewhat cute (because that's what us crafters do!!!!!). One of her "wishlist" items was tea, so I bought her a package of yummy tea, and wrapped it in decorative Halloween paper, and made a bow - first time making a bow, and definitely not as bad as I thought lol. Quick and simple!



Now, while I'm sharing....I know this is not a Halloween "themed" project, but since it was for my Boo Buddie, I figured I would share as well :). One of the things she 'wished' for was a pencil holder, so I used contact paper to personalize a little pail for her...



Thanks for stopping by! Your next stop on the hop is
