Count Down Blocks

These blocks are a cute way to count down to many occasions. Each can count down from 32. Some are more "Christmasy" than others but you can use them to count down to anything; birthdays, vacations, end of school....anything.

Corn Bags

These bags are filled with feed corn. You can either use them as a heating pad or as an ice pack. We use ours for both.

They have a flannel "pillow case" that can be removed and washed.

Turkey Time

Here's a salute to the old sucker tree. We made these turkeys so you can add suckers to their tails. They do look better with Mini Tootsie Pops because the wrappers are a more solid and harvesty color.

And of course, I had to make some blocks too. Dont you love the legs on that turkey?!

Saying Blocks

These are a few of the blocks I made that have different sayings on them. This set ended up with some bubbles that the camera highlighted but I think they're still cute.

Halloween Blocks

Dryer Duct Pumpkins

Just a cute and different idea for decorating your home for Halloween or fall. This pumpkin is made out of flexible dryer duct. You form a circle and hot glue the ends together. Then you spray paint it with orange spray paint. The stem is 3 cinnamon sticks glued together. Then you can spice up the pumpkin in whatever fashion that pleases your fancy.
This first pumpkin is our traditional harvest pumpkin with the raffia bow. I have about 4 strands of raffia on this one.


If you are not a raffia person you can tie a bow. We chose purple and black to stick with the halloween theme, but if you would like a harvest pumpkin for thanksgiving you could use a brown, yellow or green bow.

My kids told be that Halloween pumpkins needed to be Jack-O-Lanterns, so we cut out a face out of cardstock and glued it to this pumpkin. You could use black paint and paint a more permanent face on your Jack-O-Lanterns. I am planning on letting my kids each make their own and they can paint a face on them, but this one was just temporary for the picture because I prefer mine without the face.

Apple WELCOME

These are wooden apples that are each covered with different patterned paper. They are connected by wire that I have coiled. The first one has raffia on it because I love raffia. The last picture has it without for those who would like to see it without.

How do you like them apples? (tee hee)

H-O-M-E

For every month or holiday, you change the block representing the "O".

The pictures are layered vinyl on wooden blocks.
