Happy Sunday lovely! I hope you've had a creative week.

I have a few small Halloween projects on the go for the grandchildren. Life is full and creative time is limited, but I can't let the kids celebrate without something handmade from Nanna :) 

I'd love to know what you're making and if you need some inspiration then I hope you find something in this week's Week Ending post.

Let's go:

• I want to make these cute Ghosts Sitting on Swing for the poppets. The pattern is available for purchase on Etsy from Kein Maker and they look quick and cute. Landon and Iris can hang them on their door or in their windows and add some Halloween to their bedrooms.
• Sarahs Coop has a post with 100 Easy Halloween Snacks for Kids that I'm sure you'll find useful. They include simple ingredients kids will love and easy prep work for you - they're clever ways to add a touch of Halloween to their snacks. Grab a cuppa and find some new favorites.

• I wish I had time to crochet the C2C Haunted House Blanket Pattern from Pixel Crochet. This is a free pattern with a graph and written instructions to make constructing this blanket quick and easy. The design is gorgeous and it finishes at around 62" x 77". So fun!
• Viva Cova has a post for DIY Halloween Treat Bags for Kids to Decorate and all you need are some paper bags and a load of creativity. The post includes some fun versions (no instructions just inspiration) and you can go crazy with different ideas. These are perfect for parties or to drop at friends and neighbours.

• Hailey Stitches has The Little Ghost Pattern free to download and he's inspired by the main character of the book The Little Ghost Who Was by Riel Nason. It's a super cute free pattern and you simply need to sign up for their newsletter to receive your copy.
• Chel Sweets has a recipe and tutorial for this Frankenstein Cake. This is fun and how awesome would he look as the centrepiece for your Halloween food table? I'm sure the kids would love helping with this cake too. He's on my list to make with the grandkids.
• One Quiet Evening has a set of four stunning Halloween Quilt Blocks available for purchase in their Etsy shop. The blocks were designed as a series and can be used for a mini quilt, cushion or as a table runner. The set includes a cat, bat, raven and haunted house and they all include the same golden moon. So pretty!

And that's it for another week. Halloween is close now, so I hope these projects inspire you to create.

Enjoy the rest of your Sunday lovely. Stay safe and well :)
