Halloween Crafts {already}?

So I have a thing for doilies and thought, they actually make a cute web... so my mom made me some spiders to go on the "web"... ♥




I stumbled upon a HUGE vintage dictionary at the thrift store and drew up a bat pattern and made a garland!

Going batty...

Then I thought I'd try my hand at some {spooky} silhouettes...

Diabetic Doll ♥ Lilly

When I found out Lilly was diabetic I searched for toys for young children with diabetes... I couldn't find anything... So my wheels started spinning, and I knew I would CREATE a diabetic doll for her.
Here she is
The Diabetic Doll


My mom made her little bloomers,
I added felt hearts to all the spots Lilly gets injected. Her backside, complete with Shot Spots ♥ Red zebra print dress
Flannel pajamas
Of course Dr. Lilly needed a medical kit.
Complete with syringes, tape, face mask, gloves, tongue depressors, and cotton pads.
Now Lilly can give her doll "insulin shots"

Dusty Web Getter

As a child I remember having these dusty web getters... My great grandmother made them, and they were fun to use! I asked my mom a few days ago if she knew how to make them or had an extra one around... She made this for me the next day!! Look how cute! The best part is when it gets dirty you throw it in the wash...
What's hiding in the sleeve?? Why a yard stick of course!


Now, I have no excuses for dust webs....
They also work great for light fixture and above doors!
