Happy Fall - Fall Decoration #1

Happy Fall Everyone!

  
This is the top of my kitchen hutch where I like to decorate for the seasons. This year I went through all my Fall decorations and got rid of stuff that I don't plan on using any more.  Some of the stuff I have had for 12 years or more.  After I put this display up, it looked like something was missing.  My son mentioned buying a scarecrow.  I had a different thought in mind.  I was going to make one.


I had my crochet hooks out already from another project I was working on so I decided to check my yarn stash to see if there were any colors I could use to make a crochet scarecrow.  These are the colors I picked out that I wanted to use.  

The hardest part was coming up with a crochet pattern that even resembled a scarecrow.  I know I wanted to make a girl scarecrow.  I wanted her to have coveralls on and I wanted her to have pigtails.

After a few days I had the basic pattern written.  The fun part was adding all the details.  I used a fringe technique to make her straw hands and feet.  I braided her hair for the pigtails.  I glued on tiny black beads for her eyes.  A heart shape button was used for her nose.  Black yarn was used for her mouth.  Then I just tied some orange yarn bows on her pigtails.  Here is what she looks like.

She is 10 inches tall.

  Now my Fall display on my hutch is complete.

Have a great week!

Miniature Clay Pumpkins

Good Morning Friends,

Today I wanted to share with you a project I did last week.  

My son is getting ready to transform his Lionel train layout to a Fall theme and he asked me to make him some clay pumpkins.  The only request he made was that they had to look real.  When he saw the finished display when he got home from school he was so happy.  Now he has me making a whole pumpkin patch of miniature clay pumpkins.  I guess I will be busy this week making pumpkins. LOL!

Are you in the Fall mood yet?  Making these pumpkins definitely put me in a crafting mood for making some Fall crafts.  

Look for my Fall craft posts coming soon.

Have a great day!

Here are the inside hidden pockets.  They are lined with the black duct tape. There are two of them.  The 20 card pockets are trimmed with the red duct tape.

The wallet has a Velcro closure

This wallet will be available soon on my Etsy store along with some of my other duct tape creations I have made on this craft blog.

I also have a Pinterest page and Facebook Page.  You can find me if you search Honey D's Creations.

New Duct Tape Wallets I Made

Good Morning Friends,

I wanted to share with you two wallets I made over the weekend.

The first one is this Lego wallet.  

The second one is a Scooby Doo wallet.

Both of these wallets are bi-fold wallets.  

You can find both of these wallets on my Pinterest Page: look under Honey D's Creations

Over the weekend I found this cute Scottie Dog pattern duct tape.  I am in the process of making one of my 20 card slot wallets with this pattern.  I will post a photo of it when I am done.

I hope you all have a great day.
