halloween decorHow About Orange (a really fun craft blog you should check out), posted this yesterday and I was so elated that I can’t even explain it.

You’ll find the template and instructions for this little guy over at Canon’s Halloween Printables website.  The picture you see here is also taken from How About Orange.

Finally, I have something for my eldest to put together and feel a genuine sense of accomplishment. That is the plan anyway.  I’ll let you know how his creations turn out.  I’m sure he’ll have some of them together before the evening is over.

I just couldn’t resist sharing with you all right away though, so you and yours could make them to!  Be sure to come back and share your creations in the forum.  Okay?
