Last Minute Fall Wreath

With only 2 weeks to go to Christmas decorations I still did not have a fall wreath up on my front door. Last week I stopped in CVS and picked up some fall decorations for 75% off and thought, I should probably make these into a wreath.

I already had the plain twig wreath and a hot glue gun, so this wreath cost me about $2.50. CVS still has some fall decor items on clearance, I think they are now 90% off, they will probably be gone by the end of the weekend.

To create this wreath all I did was glue the decor items to the wreath.

Pinterest Kid Craft: Turkey Hats

I am always looking for fun crafts to do with my daughter. This time of the year we try to make our crafts relate to the holidays. When I found this cute Turkey Hat on Pinterest from Parents magazine, I knew my daughter was going to love creating this festive hat.

Turkey Hat from Parents Magazine

I happen to have all the items required to create this fun hat, so there was no cost. I'm always looking for crafts that do not require me to spend any money or bring anymore supplies into our already cramped house. All you need is a paper plate, construction paper, crayons or paint, scissors and a glue stick.

We had so much fun creating this hat. Probably will be creating these again next year.

Pinterest Kid Craft: Leaf Wreaths

I'm always looking for fun crafts to do with my 2 year old daughter. I came across this cute project to make wreaths out of fallen leaves.

This was pinned from Crafts for all Seasons.

This was a relatively cheap craft too. All we needed was paper plates ($2-$4), leaves (free), glue ($2) and scissors.

This was a great project because we got to go outside and get some energy out collecting the leaves, as well as having fun with arts and crafts. My daughter had a great time collecting the leaves and she really loved gluing the leaves onto the paper plates (with some help of course.)
