Filexd under: Crafts, Halloween Decor — Tags: , , , — jane @ 7:02 pm

Right about now you are probably starting to give the pumpkins you bought a look. You know the look, right? The one that shows you are speculating how you plan on cutting the thing up. This can be a daunting task for anyone. I spend a lot of time on this very thing every year. I just get so bored with the standard jack-o-lantern even though it can be quite scary. You know the one they show during the credits at the beginning of the original Halloween? That one is so simple, yet so scary. Maybe it’s because I know what’s coming in the movie. Anyway, someone gave me the book Extreme Pumpkins last year and it has opened up a whole new world to me. This book is based on the website www.extremepumpkins.com created by Tom Nardon. If you’ve never heard of the site or the book you need to check it out immediately. He will get you so excited about carving your pumpkin!flaming pumpkinPumpkin Pukeextreme pumpkins book

Creepy Crochet Book

Creepy Cute Crochet bookQuite a few years ago I learned how to crochet and I got hooked! Ha! Bad pun intended. Anyway, I am always looking for creepy things to crochet and let me tell you there isn’t much. I end up making up my own patterns most of the time. Well now I have found this amigurumi Creepy Crochet Book and it has made me so very happy. Amigurumi, if you don’t already know, is the Japanese art of crocheting small stuffed animals and human like creatures. This book has patterns to create a zombie, vampires, chuthlu, aliens, a grim reaper, skeletons and many more. Now I have the perfect gift for Christmas! Who wouldn’t want to get a little grim reaper under their tree?
