Some Monday Crafts

Can't quite get out of my creative kick yet, so today the kids did some fun stuff! I found this idea online a few weeks back, and they made them today...



Little paper strips put together to make a pumpkin.


Then we made cupcakes! I bought a.... *gasp*...boxed cake mix! It was a toss up between spice cake and carrot cake. Well, I've never actually bought a carrot cake mix before, and the last time I had a slice of carrot cake was right after giving birth [Yum. HOSPITAL carrot cake, LOL] So I went for it. Bought festive cupcake wrappers, and these little pumpkin candy decorations.



The kids loved making them, and loved eating them even more. The icing is cream cheese icing, and we sprinkled cinnamon on each cupcake as well.
