<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif; font-size: 13.5pt;"><br />Have you seen the trailer for the new Peter Rabbit movie? I am super excited to take my kids to the movie so they can watch mischievous Peter and all his farm and field friends get into a bunch of shenanigans!<br /><br />My FAVORITE thing to do when I'm not busy with the hundreds of things going on in my life is to curl up in a quiet corner and read. I am such a book worm! I remember being a small child, in nursery school (does anyone else remember nursery school??? Was that a thing everywhere or just where I grew up.....I digress) and there was this lush bright yellow carpeted corner of the classroom that had shelves filled with books upon books. I was always drawn to books with the brightest illustrations! I didn't really 'read' at such a young age....but I certainly remember the images. One of my favorite books to thumb through was The Tale of Peter Rabbit by Beatrix Potter. <br /><br />The images of Peter running through Mr. McGregor's farm, getting caught in a few traps, and finally returning home always stood out to me. It's a book that I would always grab and look through during quiet times. Suffice to say, I'm beyond excited to catch this tale on the big screen. I'm also inspired to start decorating my home for spring with all the fabulous items that Cost Plus World Market has available that are inspired by the new movie!</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif; font-size: 13.5pt;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 18px;">Recently, I was perusing the Cost Plus World Market site to see what items I could nab to decorate our home to create a Peter Rabbit spring mantle.</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 18px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-size: 18px;"><span style="color: #666666; font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif;"></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 18px;">The first item that I immediately want to put on my list is this adorable Felted Wool Peter Rabbit Figure quite naturally, it's the star of the show and would be the perfect center piece for my mantle. To give it some height, I would place the figure on top of a stack of Mini Peter Rabbit Story Books . </span></span></div>

<span style="color: #666666; font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">The next item I found was this </span></span><a href="https://www.worldmarket.com/product/peter-rabbit-snow-globe.do" rel="nofollow" style="font-family: "Calibri Light", sans-serif; font-size: 13.5pt;" target="_blank">Peter Rabbit Snow Globe</a><span style="color: #666666; font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> it's a treasure! You can see Peter </span></span><span style="color: #666666; font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">doing what he does best - sneaking vegetables from Mr. McGregor's garden! This is such a fun </span><span style="font-size: 18px;">collectible </span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> - I consider this a MUST HAVE item....additionally, I would definitely add these Flopsy, Mopsy and Cotton-Tail </span></span><a href="https://www.worldmarket.com/product/paper-pulp-peter-rabbit-sisters-figures-set-of-3.do" rel="nofollow" style="font-family: "Calibri Light", sans-serif; font-size: 13.5pt;" target="_blank">Paper Pulp Peter Rabbit Sisters Figures</a> <span style="color: #666666; font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif; font-size: 18px;">and each figure has the character's name added to the base.

<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">Every mantle deserves certain key pieces that perhaps, wouldn't necessarily be used as decoration, but could certainly serve a dual purpose, whether that be a decorative plate or a tray, and these <a href="https://www.worldmarket.com/product/peter-rabbit-melamine-egg-shaped-plates-set-of-4.do" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Peter Rabbit Melamine Egg Shaped Plates</a> or these <a href="https://www.worldmarket.com/category/dining/dinnerware/appetizer-dessert-plates.do" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Peter Rabbit Veggie Plates</a> are and 'eggs'-cellent choice! I'd either place some of these treat-filled </span></span><span style="color: #0000ee; font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif; font-size: 13.5pt;"><a href="https://www.worldmarket.com/product/peter-rabbit-easter-crackers-8-count.do" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Peter Rabbit Easter Crackers</a></span><span style="color: #666666; font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif; font-size: 13.5pt;"> on them or prop one up on a plate stand and present it as a display piece. I also like the idea of stacking these </span><a href="https://www.worldmarket.com/product/veggie-bowls-set-of-4.do" rel="nofollow" style="font-family: "calibri light", sans-serif; font-size: 13.5pt;" target="_blank">Veggie Bowls</a><span style="color: #666666; font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif; font-size: 13.5pt;"> on top of each other and filling them with decorative <a href="https://www.worldmarket.com/product/pastel-eggs-in-tube-12-pack.do" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">pastel eggs</a>! </span><span style="color: #666666; font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif; font-size: 18px;">The good thing is that the bowls and plates are also great for kids parties and because they're Melamine, they're practically unbreakable! </span><br />

<span style="color: #999999; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Today's post may be a bit random and sporadic, and that's because IT IS! I don't often post about items in my Etsy shop.....but I'm so excited about this that I am putting it out there....</span><br />
<div>
<span style="color: #999999; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #999999; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Last year, I created a huge handful of printable punny Valentine's to sell over in my Etsy shop. This year, I created a few more. Last weekend, I shared my first REAL <a href="https://www.facebook.com/cwbdparties/videos/10156199417959390/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Facebook live</a> for my page and am getting a HUGE response to these tags.<br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /><a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-GNQhALFIQSw/WoN0UIkTtII/AAAAAAABMo8/dYtBBmm0X2MFlJJlDMukya0aeNt4rcG_gCLcBGAs/s1600/Punny%2BValentines%2BPrintables%2Bby%2BCupcake%2BWishes%2BStore%2Bon%2BEtsy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="620" data-original-width="424" height="640" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-GNQhALFIQSw/WoN0UIkTtII/AAAAAAABMo8/dYtBBmm0X2MFlJJlDMukya0aeNt4rcG_gCLcBGAs/s640/Punny%2BValentines%2BPrintables%2Bby%2BCupcake%2BWishes%2BStore%2Bon%2BEtsy.jpg" width="436" /></a></div>
<br /><br />
<span style="color: #999999; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I created them for convenience. I know there are a lot of moms who are waiting until the last minute to get those classroom Valentine's and we can't always find what we're looking for. So, I figured, make a few tags, that moms can download, print, then cut out and attach to some fun toys or candy...and hey, make them PUNNY! So, if you're looking for some creative Valentine's that are super punny, head over to my <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/CupcakeWishesStore" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Etsy shop</a> and see if anything sparks your fancy!</span><br />

<span style="color: #7f7f7f; font-family: "calibri light"; font-size: 13.5pt;">This is a sponsored post. All opinions are my own.</span><span style="color: #7f7f7f; font-family: "calibri light"; font-size: 13.5pt;"><br />
<br />
</span><span style="color: #7f7f7f; font-family: "calibri light"; font-size: 13.5pt;">A few years ago I
became an official </span><span style="color: #7f7f7f; font-family: "calibri light"; font-size: 13.5pt;">Wiggy</span><span style="color: #7f7f7f; font-family: "calibri light"; font-size: 13.5pt;"> (lady who wears wigs often), mostly because I have </span><span style="color: #7f7f7f; font-family: "calibri light"; font-size: 13.5pt;"><a href="https://www.thyroid.org/hashimotos-thyroiditis/">Hashimoto's</a></span><span style="color: #7f7f7f; font-family: "calibri light"; font-size: 13.5pt;"> and suffer from hair
loss as a result. I may, perhaps, share that journey in a later post, but
I digress.....I was hesitant about wearing wigs because of this stigma that it
is 'fake hair' and maybe I was being someone I wasn't. I mean....I like
being as natural as possible when it comes to hair...but I just could not
handle the bald spots all over my head...it wasn't cute so, I needed a
solution. </span><span style="color: #7f7f7f; font-family: "calibri light";"><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

</span><span style="color: #7f7f7f; font-family: "calibri light"; font-size: 13.5pt;">There are many
beauty supply stores in my area, but I struggle with sitting in a store, trying
on wigs, on account, I'm a bit embarrassed by the balding areas on my
scalp. I just don't want everyone looking at my head. So, when I
heard about <a href="http://www.blackhairspray.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Black Hairspray</a> I knew this was a solution to all my
problems. I searched the site and found a few styles that are perfect for
the New Year!</span><span style="color: #7f7f7f; font-family: "calibri light"; font-size: 13.5pt;"><br /><br />
</span><span style="color: #7f7f7f; font-family: "calibri light"; font-size: 13.5pt;"><a href="http://www.blackhairspray.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Black Hairspray</a> is an online hair supply retailer offering a variety of wigs, weaves and hair care supplies. They offer same day shipping and a 30 day no hassle return (which, I've yet to experience with most local beauty supply shops in my area).</span><span style="color: #7f7f7f; font-family: "calibri light"; font-size: 13.5pt;"><br />
<br />
</span><span style="color: #7f7f7f; font-family: "calibri light"; font-size: 13.5pt;">I love the look
of </span><span style="color: #7f7f7f; font-family: "calibri light"; font-size: 13.5pt; font-weight: bold;"><a href="http://www.blackhairspray.com/braids/crochet-braids.html">crochet
braids</a></span><span style="color: #7f7f7f; font-family: "calibri light"; font-size: 13.5pt; font-weight: bold;"> </span><span style="color: #7f7f7f; font-family: "calibri light"; font-size: 13.5pt;">I use them on my daughter a few times throughout the year to change
up her style and to just give us both a break from her natural hair - which is
very thick and very high maintenance. They're super easy to install and come in so many different styles. Here are a few styles that I would love to try for the new year!</span></div>

<span style="color: #7f7f7f; font-family: "calibri light"; font-size: 13.5pt;"><br />These styles are fun, playful and low maintenance. I also love many of the other style, color, and length options that are available on the site. The prices on the site are actually a lot less than what I've actually seen in most brick and mortar stores. Most of all, there is the convenience of being able to shop from the comfort of my home. They also offer brands I know and recognize like Viveca Fox Collection, Outre and Equal. <br /><br />If you're looking for different style options for your hair, have a look at <a href="http://www.blackhairspray.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Black Hairspray</a>. </span><br />

<span style="color: #999999; font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 17.3333px;">When I was little girl, we had this huge birch wood paneled wall unit that had a fake built-in fire place with a real life-like rolling fire. I was told by my grandmother, that every Christmas Eve, Santa came through that 'fire place' to deliver his presents on Christmas Day. <br /><br />As a child, I was pretty good at figuring things out- especially when they didn't make sense. That being said, around the age of seven, I realized that there is no possible way a whole man can fit down a chimney and survive jumping through a fire without the inevitable happening. If that wasn't possible....it absolutely, most certainly, wasn't happening if we didn't even have a chimney with a real fire place.<br /></span></span><br />

Maybe in a way, I'm lucky, because no one ever really told me that Santa wasn't real....so, all these years, I still kept up this idea that even if I couldn't see him...there must be something special in imagining that he was. That's why, I still continued to believe, love and revel in the magic of Christmas!<br /></span></span><br />

<span style="color: #999999; font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif;"><br /><span style="font-size: 17.3333px;">Christmas is absolutely one of my most favorite holidays. So, I kind of feel bad (not really) that my kids are just at that age where they're questioning if the jolly man in the red suit is real. So....as any good mom....ahem.....I over compensate by doing all the fun Christmas Eve things for my kiddos.<br /></span></span><br />

I am excited that the end of the year is here and that I can (hopefully) take some much needed time to spend with my family. I've already started some crafting and decorating my 'holiday' home. </span></div>

<span style="color: #999999; font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Lately, my son has been questioning the existence of Santa Claus
- like, a lot. He's at an age where most of the kids are finding
out the real deal. Yet (to my delight), he still believes in Old St. Nick
and refuses to feed into any of the stories his little buddies on the
playground are telling him about Mom and Dad being the gifting culprits.
My daughter on the other hand....she 'believes'....but she's still trying to
disprove. She's placed a cute sign in her room on a dry erase board that
says, <i>Santa, if you came please sign here.</i><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #999999; font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Well, since we still have a few believers in our house, I
thought that a fun way to make the most of the magic of Christmas would be to
set up a special treats station for Santa. What better way to get in good
with Santa than offering up a nice and warm and welcome to our home as
he's making his rounds on Christmas Eve?<br />
<br />
I chose some products from <a href="http://www.orientaltrading.com/holidays/christmas-a1-550904.fltr" target="_blank">Oriental Trading Company</a> to help create a festive
treat station with delicious plate of cookies, cupcakes and <a href="http://www.orientaltrading.com/christmas-pyramid-favor-boxes-a2-13778894.fltr?keyword=nordic+noel" target="_blank">Christmas favor boxes</a> filled with 'reindeer nibble'
(mini pretzels, popcorn, melted white chocolate, sprinkles, and Christmas M&M's)<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #999999; font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 107%;">This is such an easy idea to recreate. I didn't go all out
with treats, we just chose some of Santa's favorite cookies and snacks from the
store bakery section. The station was set up in the man cave...on account
it's the perfect setting for Santa to slip down the fireplace and out of our
wood burning stove. I placed the cupcakes and cookies onto layered <a href="http://www.orientaltrading.com/party-supplies/party-tableware/party-plates-a1-551217-1.fltr" target="_blank">paper plates from Oriental Trading Company</a>. A delicious cup of hot cocoa would await a chilly Santa Claus and warm him right on up. On his way out, Santa can
grab a treat box filled with reindeer nibble for his herd to keep them going through the
night. </span><span style="font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #7f7f7f; font-family: "Calibri Light", sans-serif; line-height: 107%;">Hi friends! I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving
holiday! <br /><br /><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #7f7f7f; font-family: "Calibri Light", sans-serif; line-height: 107%;">I have a funny little story to share......The weeks leading up to
Thanksgiving, my poor son was just so DONE with all the attention placed on
Christmas. He kept stating that no one
cares about Thanksgiving and that it was a time for family and good food. He was really serious about it and right on
so many levels. Bless his sweet little
heart for valuing the purpose of Thanksgiving. <br /><br /><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #7f7f7f; font-family: "Calibri Light", sans-serif; line-height: 107%;">Of course, as any good mother, I empathized with him, gave him big
hugs and mommy kisses and told him he was right; family is really important and
we should make Thanksgiving just as important as Christmas! Secretly, deep down inside my crafty brain, I was making snow angels,
constructing a Christmas village out of empty milk cartons, baking gingerbread
cookies, decorating the tree, watching A Christmas Story and wrapping
gifts....because after Halloween, Christmas is my most favorite holiday! <br /><br /><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #7f7f7f; font-family: "Calibri Light", sans-serif; line-height: 107%;">I'm so excited to start celebrating the holiday, that I'm doing
something I've NEVER done before and having a CYBER MONDAY sale in my Etsy shop
for a WHOLE WEEK! I have oodles of fun
holiday themed decor and printables that I will be releasing over the next few
days and I'm hoping that you'll pop over to my Etsy shop and check things out. <br /><br /><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #595959; font-family: calibri light, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; font-size: 17.6px;">If you need an affordable idea for feeding your guests, my quick and easy tip for preparing a Friendsgiving meal is to keep it super simple. <br /><br />I went to my local Aldi and Trader Joe's and found a full meal to feed 4-6 people for less than $35. Trader Joe's had a Turkey En Croute with cranberry sauce and gravy for $12.99! That's a major score. I also found frozen green beans and pearl onions, and frozen sweet potatoes...I doctored the side dishes up with spices and herbs and turned out a delicious meal! I was even able to find mini pies from Aldi that were a perfect treat for dessert.<br /><br />What makes this idea THE BEST is that there is very little clean up and the time to prep and cook everything was less than two hours!<br /></span></span></div>

<li>Simple decor can go a long way, a few elegant pieces mixed in with casual everyday tableware and linens will give you a stunning tablescape. </li>
</ul>

</ul>
<ul>
<li>Make gifts serve a dual purpose by personalizing take home name cards....they'll mean a lot to your besties because you made them (and they take no time at all to make). </li>

<ul>
<li>Make meal prep effortless with heat and go dishes that you can easily flavor with flair!</li>

<span style="color: #595959; font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif; font-size: 17.6px; text-align: left;">I absolutely love hosting parties in my home, especially during the holidays. For years, I've centered most of our entertaining around our kids likes. As they're getting older now and our family dynamics are changing, I'm turning more of our entertaining towards adult flair and fashion. That being said, I realized with the holidays fast approaching, I needed to get our home into holiday hostessing shape.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #595959; font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif;"><br /><span style="font-size: 17.6px;">We have a vintage dresser that my husband converted into a buffet for our dining room. I usually use it for displaying desserts or food when we entertain....mostly, it's just set up with regular seasonal decor and sometimes ends up being a catch all spot for homework - you know....real-life living. </span></span><br />

<span style="color: #595959; font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 17.6px;">Recently, we changed the location of the buffet in the dining space. It is now situated in front of our dining room window....that window has an eyesore of an AC unit behind those velvet curtains. So, this setup is great for colder weather months....but it will certainly not work for the spring or summer. This setup also works great as I can change out the drapery to suit the decor I plan use for whatever particular holiday occasion I'm hostessing.</span></span></div>

<span style="color: #595959; font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 17.6px;">We have an actual bar in our home but it is located in the Man Cave. We also have a liquor cabinet in our dining space as well, but it doesn't function as a suitable place to mix and serve drinks. Since most of our holiday entertaining takes place in the main living area of our home, I decided to use our buffet as a drink station.</span></span><br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #595959; font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif; font-size: 17.6px;"><br />To set a winter holiday drink station, I recommend decorating with snow and iced kissed decor. You can hang icy wreaths as a focal point to your backdrop. They're festive and seasonal and add just the right decorative touch to the space.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-cgPxUq908cY/WgUoyXeWlVI/AAAAAAABFTY/_pjhQCIfbo8vXWvLe0K1dN6wCQ3IS-X4wCEwYBhgL/s1600/Snow%2Bkissed%2BPine%2BBranch%2BWreath.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1350" data-original-width="900" height="640" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-cgPxUq908cY/WgUoyXeWlVI/AAAAAAABFTY/_pjhQCIfbo8vXWvLe0K1dN6wCQ3IS-X4wCEwYBhgL/s640/Snow%2Bkissed%2BPine%2BBranch%2BWreath.jpg" width="426" /></a></div>
<br />
<span style="color: #595959; font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif; font-size: 17.6px;">Use metallic and mirrored pieces to bring lots of light and reflection to your drink station. I found a beautiful mirrored tray and placed metallic confetti gold glassware on it. I also added a few whimsical decorative snow birds and some fresh rosemary sprigs to create a winter look and feel to the table.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #595959; font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif; font-size: 17.6px;">I like to offer guests options for their adult beverages, some people like alcohol and some do not. So, for a signature drink, I recommend trying an Elderberry Cordial. It's a very concentrated fruit blend that must be diluted with, sparkling water or juice for a non-alcoholic drink. However, if you'll be serving alcoholic drinks, you can add white wine or vodka. <br /><br />I like to place Vodka or Gin in a large glass flask alongside the rest of the mix-ins. This lets guests control what they would like in their drinks. The cordial and sparkling water is the base for your cocktail mix and can be combined in a decanter. </span></div>

<br />
<span style="color: #595959; font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif; font-size: 17.6px;">Set out garnishing to complete your drink set up - I think cranberries and fresh sprigs of Rosemary are perfect complements and trust me, the Rosemary adds just the most subtle and delightful flavor to your holiday drink!</span><br />

<span style="color: #595959; font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif; font-size: 17.6px;">When serving drinks, its a really good idea to offer some edibles. Cost Plus World Market has a wonderful selection of quality gourmet meats. You can create a simple meat and cheese platter and garnished with fresh seasonal fruit and rosemary. You can present them on a white platter, slate tile or cheeseboard, whatever you have on hand would work perfectly.</span></div>

So, I've found a tribe of other creative women who do the same, so I know for sure that I will be sending a lot of stationery gifts to my planner friends.

<span style="color: #767171; font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif;"><br /><span style="font-size: 13pt;"><br />So, the story behind this idea was spontaneously inspired by my sweet friend, Cindy's Black Unicorn planner sticker designs that she sells in her Etsy shop, <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/TheQueenPea" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">The Queen Pea</a>! I was looking for a white pumpkin for this project and couldn't find the right style or size. There were bunches of black pumpkins available so, I figured...hey...I'll take a cue from Cindy and make a black unicorn! <br /><br />Also, m</span><span style="font-size: 17.3333px;">y daughter loves unicorns right now and I know they're super trendy so, I figured, why not? So, she and I worked on making her very own 'Uni-Pumpkin'.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: 13pt;">Here's the how-to....</span></span><br />

Take about a 4" square of glittered foam and cut a curved end from the bottom of the square from one corner to the opposite corner, creating a curved triangle. Shape the foam into a cone and twist to create a horn. Set aside.</span><br />

You can also use your arm bent at the elbow. Once you have the yarn looped as many times as you'd like (around 30-50 loops) you can tie it off at one end about 1/3 of the way from the top of one end of the yarn loop. Then, cut each looped end in half. This will be the mane. Attach the mane with hot glue, leaving the 'stem' of the pumpkin exposed. </span><br />

<span style="color: #595959; font-family: "Calibri Light", sans-serif; font-size: 13pt;">
I wanted to use all of the fun craft items that, Laura shipped to me. So, I decided to make a candy corn felt tag and
use the box as a nice Halloween treats gift and favor box.</span><br />
<br /><span style="color: #595959; font-family: "Calibri Light", sans-serif; font-size: 13pt;">
To dress up my box, I started by grabbing a piece of scrapbook paper, tracing
around one side of the box to create a template. I cut out four pieces of the paper and then
adhered them to the box to cover it up. </span><br />
<br /><div style="text-align: center;">

<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ZQm3hUyAtek/WeCww1kpsDI/AAAAAAABDd0/BQ7GkHk6h2QrLBX4is7wY2U1cE9WWrDmQCLcBGAs/s1600/tape%2Bbox%2Btemplates%2Bto%2Bbox.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="667" data-original-width="1000" height="426" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ZQm3hUyAtek/WeCww1kpsDI/AAAAAAABDd0/BQ7GkHk6h2QrLBX4is7wY2U1cE9WWrDmQCLcBGAs/s640/tape%2Bbox%2Btemplates%2Bto%2Bbox.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<span style="color: #595959; font-family: "Calibri Light", sans-serif; font-size: 13pt;"><br />Once that step was completed, I made my Candy Corn felt tag. </span><span style="color: #595959; font-family: "Calibri Light", sans-serif; font-size: 13pt;"><br />To make the tag, I hand drew a triangle onto cardstock and rounded the
corners. If you don’t have a corner
round punch, you can always use a cap from a water bottle and trace around
that. I traced my template and cut out
the shape from a yellow, white and orange piece of felt. </span><br /><div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-le90WQY4tJU/WeCwthV6OHI/AAAAAAABDdU/E2H4TqgwAZA6B3gzxeBD7by9PZ8rFW2sACLcBGAs/s1600/Candy%2BCorn%2BPieces.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="667" data-original-width="1000" height="426" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-le90WQY4tJU/WeCwthV6OHI/AAAAAAABDdU/E2H4TqgwAZA6B3gzxeBD7by9PZ8rFW2sACLcBGAs/s640/Candy%2BCorn%2BPieces.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>

<br /><br /><span style="color: #595959; font-family: "Calibri Light", sans-serif; font-size: 13pt;">
The same technique can be used to make the mouth layer for the tag, and you
just would cut black felt in half once your circle is cut. For the cheeks, I carefully traced around a
pencil eraser and cut that out of pink felt.
</span><br />
<br /><span style="color: #595959; font-family: "Calibri Light", sans-serif; font-size: 13pt;">
When all my layers of felt were cut, I stacked the layer together and cut 1/3
off the top of the orange layer, then 2/3 off of the yellow layer. I used hot glue to attach all my pieces
together and set it aside to dry.</span><br />

<br /><span style="color: #595959; font-family: "Calibri Light", sans-serif; font-size: 13pt;"><br />Using some of the treats that Laura sent, I grabbed orange, yellow and white
paper shred, added it to a clear bag, and placed the treats inside. Then I added a little tag with some festive
ribbon. I also put some paper shred in
the box with the clear bag of treats into the popcorn box. Finally, I attached the felt candy corn tag
with a mini paper clip!</span><div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="color: #7f7f7f; font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 107%;">This year,
I was really into flamingos....I went to San Diego in April and visited the zoo during my stay and got to see these
beautiful pink birds and was instantly hooked. Everything was just flamingo this and that
for me after that trip. So, I figured, it would just
make sense to round up my Halloween with a Flamingo themed trunk or treat!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

if you're wondering what a <a href="http://cupcakewishesandbirthdaydreams.blogspot.com/search?q=trunk+or+treat" target="_blank">trunk or treat</a> is....it's a fun way for kids and
families to trick or treat. Usually
hosted by community organizations, churches or neighborhoods, sometimes in
parking lots or other outdoors spaces.
Folks dress up their vehicles...trunks and pass out candy or
treats. It's really fun and you should
try it!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #7f7f7f; font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 107%;">If you
need ideas on how to set up your trunk for a trunk or treat, I have some
tips. I always start with a fabric
cloth...usually a dark one because it blocks the light. I always tack the fabric and other items I am
hanging up with t-pins or straight pins.
For my set up, I just hung a dark fabric behind a pink plastic table
cover. Then, I hung a Trick or Treat
banner up using pins as well.</span><o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #7f7f7f; font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br />My next
step was to create some sort of facade to somewhat dress up the not so pretty
parts of hubby's car....and just really for overall decor. Faux tropical leaves were perfect for this
and I added a few pink balloons blown up at different sizes for a pop of
color! They almost look like flowers! A few colorful streamers were added to the
mix just to hide more of the car. Here's another tip, use a strong double stick tape to hold items like this into place. They attach to metal and plastic easily and can be taken off without leaving anything on the car.<br /></span><o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #7f7f7f; font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 107%;">I
placed one of my go-to fabric coverings on the floor of the trunk. The black and white stripes pick up the black
and white colors in the Trick or Treat banner perfectly.
I added more pops of color with a few decorative paper rosettes, a pink
feather boa, and striped balloons from <a href="http://www.orientaltrading.com/holidays/halloween-a1-550760.fltr" rel="nofollow" style="font-size: 17.3333px;" target="_blank">Oriental TradingCompany</a>.<br /></span><o:p></o:p></div>

finish everything off, I added a fun lightbox sign, wooden flamingos, along with a few favor boxes
filled with candy and flamingo pinwheels! I chose my candy because they were 'sticks' as a nod to the long legs of the flamingos.<br /><br /><br /><o:p></o:p></span></div>
