Wednesday Wishes!

Well folks, today is the final Wednesday Wishes Halloween Edition of this year.  Sad.  It's so hard to believe that All Hallow's Eve, Samhain, All Soul's Day, Hop-Tu-Naa, or whatever you prefer to call this awesome Holiday is almost upon us and will soon be behind us yet again.  Time has got to slow down!  This is ridiculous!  It just seems like yesterday I was getting ready for last Halloween!  Eeeeesh.

Okay, I'm done bitching now.  Here are some final Halloween loves/wishes/inspirations that I pinned onto my Pinterest (I'm so in love with that site!)!  Enjoy!

Can you believe this Witch's hat is made out of paper?!  Seriously.  Check out the tutorial.  So amazing that it really does look like hammered copper.  I think I am going to have to try to make a few next year.

I love what Alabama Slacker Mama did with these mannequin legs!  Genius!  Now I have to find some.  Haha!  I also saw another project similar to this except the tops of the legs were sticking out from under a welcome mat on the front porch.  Also a cute idea!

I love vintage things...or even vintage inspired new things!  :)  These are paper mache and I love the vintage look to them!  I think this would be a fun project for Pacen and I to do together.  I haven't worked with paper mache since grade school and I don't know that Pacen has ever even heard of it.  He would love the mess it makes!  Haha!  I would love the awesome vintage-ish pumpkins to put out next year!

How adorable is this costume?!  I love it!  I imagine this would even be a good last minute costume idea.  It looks like most of the stuff could be found at home, with exception of the balloon, but I imagine that can be found at almost any store that sells toys and such.  You could maybe use one of those punch balloons.  Remember those?  They blew up big and came with a large rubberband  that you tied to one end.  Aaahhhh, memories.  Haha!

Here is another sugar skulls idea.  This would be good to use for a Mother Nature costume.  Paint your face like this and wear a big puffy tulle green dress.  Wrap some vines around an arm and a leg and maybe put a bird's nest in your hair.  Hmmmmm, idea for next year?  :)

Ogre toes!  I imagine if Ogres were real this is exactly what their toes would look like.  Well, maybe there would be hair, but these are darn close to what I picture an Ogre's toe to look like.  :)  These are made out of those orange peanut shaped candy things, green candy melt, and fruity tootsie roll candies.  These would be fun to take to a Halloween party for kids. 

Well, I hope you all have a very spooky and fun Halloween!  Be safe!
