This is Halloween
I love Halloween which is no surprise to anyone. Any excuse I can get to make a costume or buy stuff with a gothic bent to it, is completely fine with me. I try to keep an eye on the contests section of Instructables [a website featuring a bunch of DIY tutorials for all kinds of things] because they offer sweet prizes. Plus, I enjoy the instruction writing process. It makes me feel like Martha Stewart should hire me or that I could have my own show on PBS and it would be so much better than that horrible Katie Brown show. [She probably a nice person, but the projects that she and her workshop construct make my gorge rise. I present these as examples: vase covers and a party sign. Oh god. But I digress...
I've made a couple of Instructables for their Halloween contest. For the more in depth one, I chose to show everyone how to make cute little treat bags. You could use the instructions for making any sort of gift bag, really. Then, as an add on, I explain how to make your own Halloween-style Easter grass.

I have to say, it's so funny you mentioned Katie Brown...I have really tried to like her since she seems like a more human Martha Stewart. But, whenever I watch her show, I feel like the projects are dumb--I could do waaaay better and no one is paying me ;)
don't forget the spiders!!!! See you email.
Thanks for the great tutorial.
We just got back from Chicago...boy so many things to do and see. Love the city in the colder weather.
