These were so, so easy to make and the whole time I could not help and think of all of the options you would have with these.

Rice Krispie Ghosts

These were a lot of fun to make and so cute.  We gave them out for halloween treats and everyone loved them.  They tasted good and were really easy to make.  They do not cost a lot and do not take a lot of time, either.

Mod Podge Paper onto Plates

This is such a cute idea and I could think of all of the party and holiday plates you could make with this method.  The best is that you can get these clear plates at the dollar store or you can get them really cheap at IKEA.  The paper is really cheap as well.  These would be fun to do for a birthday party, Halloween, Christmas, or as a gift for someone.  The only thing you have to be careful of is, making sure these do not get water on them, once the water gets on the paper it will ruin it.  These have to be spot cleaned with a paper towel so they do not get ruined.  Other than that, these were easy, quick, cheap and fun to put together.

Glow in the Dark Stairs


Doesn't look remotely the same does it? I did everything right, got the glow sticks like it said, cut them open and then poured them onto my stairs and this is the effect it had.  The glow faded right away and what was left were a few spots of glow.  I think you could get this effect by buying glow in the dark paint but then it is paint so it would not come off as easily as a glow stick.  Bummer, the stairs look so cool and would be fun for Halloween.
