{halloween countdown}




I had so much fun making this today! 
Honestly, by the time I figured out my plan {implementing what I had pictured in my head} and got my kids situated, it took maybe 1 hour.  Factor in, of course, time for paint and glue to dry.

All items on the front are attached with modge podge.  Back side of cookie sheet is used to store unused number magnets for future use.  And CHEAP!  I think this project cost me a total of $10 and that's accounting for the purchase of tons of magnets {that I'll have other projects} and a 3 pack of cookie sheets.  I think I'll use the biggest one for a yearly calendar {project TBD} and the middle size for my next project.

Next project?  A Christmas countdown and a tutorial!  Yep, I'm going to attempt my first step-by-step tutorial in a few weeks.  Keep checking back!
Craft on, ladies!
