Clothes Pin Bling
I ordered alphabet cards for my new alphabet prints and I want to be able to hang them from a ribbon. I thought it would be fun to give the clothes pins I am going to use a little punch. I am a big fan of glitter and I had an unopened bottle of Mod Podge calling my name so I gave it a go and am thrilled with the outcome.
The process was as easy as could be. I added one layer of Mod Podge to the top surface of each pin and sprinkled on some glitter.
Nothing is more annoying than a glitter project that sheds all over the place so in order to secure the glitter I put on a second coat of Mod Podge with one more light sprinkle of glitter.
This method secures the glitter very well. I am also planning to add some strong magnets to the back of some of them and use them on the fridge to hold our favorite art projects. I love 'em!

A Halloween Celebration
Our Halloween festivities started on Friday and have finally come to a sweet and tired close tonight. I made some Halloween treats and my three year old and I made homemade play dough to share with friends throughout the weekend.
I made some worm infested ice cubes (thanks for the idea Martha!):
These were a HUGE hit:
Here is the candy corn shaped play dough we made using this perfect play dough recipe:
My son's favorite part was adding the glitter:
I also made some ghost and pumpkin cake pops, using my own easy recipe (doughnut holes dipped in chocolate):
