**This post contains affiliate links and I will be compensated if you make a purchase after clicking on my links.

If you have a single creative bone in your body, then I am sure that you have heard of Cricut®.  The Cricut® machines have been on my wish list for years.  Hubby, finally bought me one last year and there’s nothing like it.  You can go from Mom to the Super Cool Mom just by turning on your machine.  The Cricut Design Space is chock full of all the Inspiration you could possibly need. Now, in addition to that, Cricut® offers an even better Subscription Plan, Cricut® Access .  Do you need ideas for a single project try out the Monthly Plan?  It automatically renews at $9.99 each month, but you can sign up and cancel at anytime.  That screams flexibility to me.   However, if you are always on the hunt for new projects and embellishments the Annual Plan may be more your speed.  It runs you only $7.99 a month, but you make a one time payment of $95.88 and trust me it is worth it.  Cricut® Access boasts of  unlimited access to over 30,000 images, over 1,000 Make It Now™ projects, and 370 fonts.

Compare the two plans to see which one works best for you.

Monthly Cricut Access™

Trick or Treat — Working our Way Down the Fall Craft Bucket List!!

Posted on by

Fall Craft BucketAbove – Remember our Fall Bucket List!!

Below – Here are the Items we Actually Ended up Making — Of Course, Fall Is Not Over Yet!!

The Spider Web Plate was very easy.  I found these festive colored ceramic plates at Publix.  We Used White Painters® Paint Markers to recreate the Spider Web on the Plate, and waited for it to dry then added 3D Spiders to complete the look.

I like most folks this year, got caught up in the Fun-Kin Hype, and bought a Fun-Kin Carvable Pumpkin (top right of the above picture).  It seemed like it would be so much easier to carve than a real pumpkin.  But, I wasn’t impressed.  I did notice that they have Fun-Kin Knives and maybe it would have been easier, if I had used one of those.  But, I didn’t buy one.  So instead, we used a Regular Carving Knife.  I intended to use it as a candy or candle holder.  But, didn’t love either look, so I decided to just use it as part of our Decorations.

Last, but not least, was our Halloween Welcome Chalkboard.  I truly had fun creating this, even if I am no Picasso.  I think it is the perfect finishing touch to our Fall/Halloween Decor.
