Hello everyone!
As I've mentioned in previous posts, my boys are all playing FOOTBALL.
When I came across this FOOTBALL snack, I couldn't resist sharing it.
Here's for the rough and tough BOYS Of Fall---Cheer them on!

Brought to you by:
This football sandwich and apple helmet were made using dark german wheat bread, turkey, provolone cheese, 1 apple, Twizzler strings, and strawberry cream cheese.
We cut 2 pieces of bread into football shapes. Cut the turkey and cheese to fit and put on the inside. Cut the stripes and laces out of the cheese scraps and add on top of the football. Tilt the apple just a bit and cut off a small piece from the bottom so the apple will stay on the plate. Cut out part of the apple to resemble a helmet. Take a toothpick and poke 3 holes down each side of the cut out part of the apple. Pull off a few Twizzler strips and pinch off 3 pieces to go across that helmet. Pinch off 2 smaller pieces to go down the front of face mask. Poke the longer pieces into the holes...they will pop right in. We glued our shorter pieces on with strawberry cream cheese, but you could use regular, peanut butter, or whatever!

ENJOY!
This week is all about FUN WITH FOODS for FALL!


Welcome to the Pumpkin Patch!
The Twelve Days Of Creative Fall!

We've been to Sunflower Lane.
We're on our way to Pumpkin Blvd.
Thanks for taking a ride with me for the
past seven days!
Five more days of
Twelve Days Of Creative Fall FUN still to come!

Today, I'm showing you all a Chalkboard Pumpkin Sign that is simple to make.
A sign to display with your pumpkins.
The Pumpkin Patch
I've been happily making pumpkins. 
When I see pumpkins all over my dinning room table and through out my entry,
I feel like I need an official sign.

When I told you I was using a lot of wood scraps, I wasn't kidding.
The back of my Suburban is filled with wood scraps.
My kids keep asking me what the wood is for.
Well here it is!

A few more Halloween Books to add to our Spookyville Book collection.
(I featured the Spookyville Books yesterday)
I made the books with black spray paint and vinyl chalkboard fabric.
The vinyl chalk board fabric makes the spine of the book look real!
You can also write on the book spine with chalk for a book title.

Another idea is to use Halloween  Ribbon with words.
I have a lot of fun Halloween ribbon left over from last year.
 The ribbon works great as Book Titles.

I like easy, simple projects that can be finished in a hour or one afternoon.
Supplies:
Black Chalkboard Spray Paint
Wood measuring approx:  6" X 11"
Platform wood- same size or smaller
Finials: (two in a pckg at Lowes $2.99)
Sand Paper
Halloween or Fall Ribbon
jute twine
chalk
Step One:  Screw Finial into your wood.
Spray Paint (chalkboard) your wood pieces and finial.
(My finials were ready to screw into boards, no drill was needed)

Step Two:
Sand the edges of your wood pieces.
(By looking at the pictures, you can see how easy this is to make.)
Attach your chalk to jute twine and tie to finial.
Add Seasonal Ribbon
Glue the wood to the base and you are finished.


Step Three: 
Place your sign where it makes your Pumpkins Shine!

You will probably see this chalkboard again!
You can easily change the ribbon to all Seasons and Holidays.

Step Four: 
Enjoy your Fall where ever you live!
Here's a little DETOUR--
I love this time of year!
I especially love what the Season brings.
FOOTBALL!
I have three boys playing Football!
Once Upon A Time, all four of my boys were playing.
It is the highlight of my Fall!



Boys are a JOY!
Here's to the
BOYS OF FALL!
Happy Fall!
