Candy Corn Wreath

I saw this wreath on the Cover of Women's Day magazine...I love this magazine...a nice easy read with lots of fun tips! I decided to go for it with this wreath and I am so happy how it turned out...super cute!

I started with a Styrofoam round wreath

The magazine suggests using black duct tape to cover it,  I started using ribbon, but ran out so I scrounged up some Crete paper I had and used that...simple enough...



Next using a hot glue gun and bag of candy corn I started glueing the candy corn down in circles, rotating their directions


Continue until covered. I took a black ribbon as my wreath hanger and hung it up



I felt like it was missing something...I had found this sign at the dollar store and hadn't put it anywhere...TA DA!!! Love it





Oh yea here is the Woman's Day Magazine cover...

Fall Blocks


This was a fun, easy and cheap fall craft.  I started with some wood blocks I got from Lowe's for around $3. I spray painted them with the leftover spray paint from the patio furniture. After they were dry I cut out the letters FALL on my cricut from scrapbook paper did a little cut and paste and that's it. I think they are super cute! Love the way they match all the colors I have in my house!!!
