Cute Candy Corn Craft



Norah had a ton of fun making this super simple fall craft! Although she won't call it candy corn... she keeps calling it a rocket ship haha!


This was really easy and fun for us to do. While she is VERY into cutting (snipping as she likes to call it) I did the cutting this time ;) Basically I simply drew a candy corn shape (lots of drawing and erasing and more drawing and erasing to get it to a shape I liked) onto the yellow. After that I used it as a guide to cut the orange and white and we simply used a glue stick to glue the 3 pieces together, glued some eyes on as well as a pipe cleaner for the mouth, then glued it to black paper. 



Easy and fairly mess free fall craft :)

Latest Project

Goodness, you mix the holiday season with a toddler and being pregnant and you get a very sidetracked mama! I haven't abandoned the blog I promise, I've just been so busy (Can you say exhausted?!)

I've done a few projects for Wesley's room but honestly not very much. His birth is really sneaking up on me and I feel so unprepared! 

One of the small projects I have done though is Pinterest inspired (of course). I've seen this idea floating around there. Basically you nail a shape/letter/design into a piece of wood and then use yard or twine to fill in the gaps. This was a super cheap project! We bought a board at Home Depot for $2.50 and had them cut it into 3 pieces for us (I used one of the other pieces for a project for him as well). The paint is actually left over from painting our living room (Gray is a common color between his room and our living room) so that didn't cost anything extra. I did buy yarn but it didn't take very much yarn at all. 

Anyways, here is how it turned out:
