Wacky & Wicked Witch Windsock Tutorial

Last Updated July 26, 2018 By Alecia

witch windsock made from a green painted tin can, black ribbon, green ribbons, a plate and funnel

My favorite movie ever is Hocus Pocus, it has been since I was a kid. Witches have always been a favorite of mine (and let’s be honest, I’d trade my car payment for a broom in a heartbeat!) and I wanted to add one to my Halloween line up in the form of a Wicked Witch […]

UpCycled CD Spinners

Last Updated January 11, 2018 By Alecia

Use up old CDs with this fun rainy day craft project. Easy enough for a three year old and pretty enough to decorate any garden

I’ve been a pretty dark place recently. Dealing with post-partum depression/anxiety and the end of my marriage has left me drained and with a creative block. I was cleaning out my over stuffed craft room when my three year old found a bag of beads I had stored away for ‘someday’. She loves making things […]

Last Updated August 31, 2020 By Alecia

Whip up a set of Jack-O-Lantern Planters from tin cans this fall. Fill them with seasonal flowers for a fun pop of color on your front porch

This is a fun painting craft you can finish in a weekend. Do yourself a favor and get good paint for this, it’ll cover faster and the DecoArt […]

Last Updated October 15, 2019 By Alecia

Turn an empty can into a glowing phantom with this DIY tutorial for a ghost windsock with ribbon and paint for a spooky friend straight from the recycle bin

We’ve reached the point where I’m turning kitchen recyclables into Halloween stuff (this isn’t even the only project I’ve got this year using tin cans). This project is in the kid-friendly Halloween category. There is a bit of a wait with all the paint drying but you can put together this Ghost Windsock in an […]

Witch Hat Halloween Wreath

Last Updated August 8, 2020 By Alecia

Add another tack to the back for a hanging loop

I like to push the boundaries of what’s acceptable as a wreath. I know, I’m a rebel, totally the kid your mom would never want you to hang out with (actually she probably would, I live a pretty boring life). I’ve made more than one wreath out of a sun hat. Last year my Spider […]
