SCRAPBOOK HALLOWEEN GARLAND WITH WE R MEMORY KEEPERS

On a recent trip to Michaels, I picked up a new 12" x 12" Halloween paper pad. That got me instantly inspired to make this super simple garland.

HALLOWEEN TIC TAC TOE WITH WASHI TAPE

Here's a quick craft that will keep the little ones entertained at home or on the go: Halloween Tic Tac Toe! To make it, the first thing you need to decide is your game pieces.
