goin' batty

you can tell that halloween is almost here! i went out to get the mail today and spied this little bat hiding in the bushes.....


and then i noticed them hanging out with the jack-o-lantern.....


and they've even found their way into my studio and seem to love my fabric stash!! but, these aren't just any bats, they're martha stewart bats, and super easy to make! you can find the video instructions and template here!
p.s. i didn't have any spray paint for the clothespins, so i just used acrylic paint and it worked like a charm! have fun! :)

    Aren't the plug in pumpkins great??
    I have a few. A couple have little chew marks on the mouth - I think I have a little mouse in the attic. Well, I hope it was a little mouse!!
