    A DIY Christmas... Love the idea. I'm in for as much as I have time to do and will commit to a full DIY Christmas next year!

    Pink Weeds: I want to see those aprons. I LOVE aprons and have two I'm working on. Please share!

    Fire Starters for my friends who camp or have fireplaces. It's "expected" of me now... lol. I save stuff all year to make them.

    I wonder if you could do something with seed packs. You can sew a cute little holder or a bow with rosette and include 5 packs of seeds per item. Flower or vegetable selections so people can choose. Africa suffers so much from water loss that selling seeds to plant our own crops brings meaning to it for me.

    Just a random thought.

    I like 3. You SMILED. Okay, maybe smiling isn't your highest priority for Halloween, but you have a great smile and we just don't see it enough. ;)

    Did some more google-ing too and I am definitely leaning towards creepy now....

    Really good reason to avoid, avoid, avoid. Thanks Arty!

    Somewhere over The Rainbow. Not exactly for Halloween but it really makes me want to kill someone every time I hear it!

    For you Syeyon: (For clarity, Syeyon PM'd me a request to see my deck. I could not find a way to send it privately.)

    We've already started stowing things away for winter so it's not "prettied" up but here is the deck we made. Thanks so much for reminding me of all the wonderful memories I have of Grandpa and making it.

    He really was my first DIY inspiration, though I didn't realize it until now!

    By innards, I usually think of the seeds! Clean off all the surrounding goo and bake for about 10 minutes at 375 degrees or so. You'll know when they just barely start to turn brown. I also soak them for 24 hours in lightly salted water. Eat them whole.

    I also save my pumpkin Mash, (After Halloween) for pumpkin soup that we have on Thanksgiving. You can freeze it nicely as long as you don't add the cream at the end.

    Have fun!

    I'm with St.Ephanie! I have all kinds of "want" but no drive. Plus, we've getting the garden put up for winter and doing all the extra outside stuff. I feel depressingly unproductive!
