Halloween Calender

Made this today after school with the kiddos (I'll post our picture after it dries). Found it here. It was actually way easier than I thought. You will use A LOT of Modge Podge though.....so beware. They have free downloads for the dates for October on the website, and I even got the baking sheet at The Dollar Store for $1, just like they did. This whole craft from start to finish cost less than $10, which I think is pretty good.

We generally don't go too crazy with Halloween around here. I absolutely get into the whole pumpkin, scarecrows, hay, candy, and all the fall goodies, but generally find the ghosts, bats, vampires, bloody eyeballs, and witches to be a little freaky. And while I have control of it around here....that is how we will do it. ;) Our baking sheet is drying right now, and then we are going to put on the candy and numbers. Magnet tape is wonderful....I'm just sayin'. And so is all the leftover candy that didn't fit on the calendar.

Our finished product that is still waiting for the month to be glued on top. :)
