Fall = I want to make crafts

I don't know what it is about this time of year that makes me want to be crafty, but I sure have been wanting to make enough crafts to decorate a small village. 

It could be that it has now become winter here in Utah and the cold has driven me inside with nothing better to do.  Or that it is so cold that I feel the need to make myself twelve HUNDRED blankets to keep warm. 

Or that in the fall, The Holidays start.  And what do we do during the holidays (besides eat)?  We decorate.  This spurs on our need to make things with which to decorate our abodes. 

I think that's what got me. 

Which is why Allison and I spent an evening crafting up some Halloween decorations.  With some coupons from the craft store, this little adventure was pretty cheap.

(Disclaimer:  I am not actually "crafty." But Allison IS.  Big time.  So go easy on my 3rd grade art project)
