My three year Emmy wanted to decorate this baby pumpkin. Thinking that I am crafty, I had her paint it first, and told her to let it dry. The next day, I found it on the kitchen table, with most of the paint scratched off by little fingernails. Crafty pumpkin — off to a great start!

She knew what she wanted this baby pumpkin to be, and I tried to pull it off using some supplies we had at home. What do you think it is? A crazy spider pumpkin with six legs? A crazy mustached man? A crazy tiger? (Notice the theme of crazy!)

Um, no, it’s none of those things! It’s supposed to be a black cat. 

Here’s a Halloween (fall) craft that actually worked and looked cute. 

At our last MOPS meeting we made these autumn luminaries. Our craft leader always find the greatest crafts for us! She found this idea on Martha Stewart’s website.

Here are my luminaries, all lit up!
