craft/candy/sweets season approaches

labor day approaches. to all americans...this means a day to celebrate the achievements of workers. to the sun worshippers it means the unofficial end of summer.

to me, it's the beginning of craft season. once labor day hits, it seems like the rest of the year is just a blur. school begins, halloween, thanksgiving and christmas. and this year, i have the added bonus of my 30 year high school reunion :-) i'm not only attending, i'm planning it. LOVE IT! so, all of these occasions call for crafts, candy and sweets.

the first big holiday for candy and sweets will be HALLOWEEN. i always loved halloween as a kid, and i still do. the colors of halloween are so much fun! here is a quick preview of some of my halloween candy and sweet treats! aren't the finger cookies fun??? and how bout those peanut butter butterscotch rice krispie treat eyeballs???? the kids LOVE them!!!



more detailed pics will be coming soon...but i wanted you all to see some of my halloween offerings early...to get your eyeballs and taste buds thinking :-)

let me know what you think...and more pics will be coming soon.

just a test...

...to see if i know what i'm doing here :-)

the craft diva takes the plunge into blogging!

i've decided to start a blog about my crafts, candy, cookies and sweets. i hope you will all enjoy it. i've been inspired by my fabulous niece melissa at icing designs. over the years, i've inspired her...now she inspires me :-)

my mom was and is a creative home maker. my dad was an artist. i think i got the best of both worlds.

please be patient as i try to work thru this wonderful world of blogging. and look for me on facebook as the craft diva.
