hello, october!

This is my very first altered paint can. What fun it was to make, too! I made this Halloween themed one for my charge. She's only a year and a half and won't be getting candy so I'm going to fill it with toddler-friendly goodies. I was inspired to do this when I saw this 2peas post. This was also my first time using my two new stamp sets! I used this stamp from Wendi Speciale Designs and this alphabet set from Paper Wishes. The weird thing about the latter is that it doesn't look like the photo in the catalog or online. My set is black letters on a foam faux wood. Funny, huh?

How sweet is this candy corn?! My 13 year old sister, Sarah, made this for me in her woodshop class. I've made it through Sept. wondering why decorations were already out (straight through Christmas!) but now that it's October- I'm game! :)
