~Happy Halloween! Ready For Fall Gifting & Sewing~

Happy Halloween my friends!

I am excited to take the boys trick or treating tonight,

last year my son was sick so I stayed him and hubs took the other 2.

My older boys have grown into the "scary mask" phase but my

youngest is going to be Luigi, and I fixed his costume up.

You know fall always marks the beginning of giving season for me.

I thought I better get ready last week so I began making these

gift boxes and tags.

I like to have a few ready to go.

I used the Momenta papers and embellishments because they

felt like fall but not TOO fall, they still looked soft and elegant.

I love the colors too!

Fall also signifies the time I get my sewing machine out and make my

famous velvet santa dresses. This year I am also making them in

little girl sizes. I love throwing them on for the holidays, with a black belt

just under the bust, a black sweater and if it's too cold I also

throw on a sparkly t-shirt or a turtleneck.

This is just one I made this weekend for a custom order.

I have to add straps still today, and I have 3 more on my table.

One is PURPLE, one is SILVER, and the last one is red.

I wish my camera like red more LOL I will snap a shot of the

silver one for tomorrow's blog post. It is a lovely stretchy velvety fabric.

Everyone oohs and aahs over mine. I have one in blue and red.

Ok off to finish the last minute touches on the kids costumes and

finish off these dresses today!

Have a wonderful Halloween with your family!!
