Free Idea: Halloween Invites

This year Willow took Inspiration from Martha Stewart's Severed Finger Invites and made them her own way.

What you will need:

• Witch finger candy pretzel mold
• Plaster
• Cups
• Stirring Rods
• Old Ivy Acrylic Paint
• Licorice Acrylic Paint
• Paint Brush
• Acrylic Shiny Spray Sealer
• Coffin Treat Box (Down load here)
• Your Invites
• Model Magic Putty (or silly putty will work)
• Ribbon (We used leftover Halloween ribbon)
• Self adhesive Magnets
• Brown riffita or garden twine
  

Directions:
Clean and dry your witch finger mold. Place the model clay where the finger ends and just before the grove that holds the pretzel rod. Make sure you place enough there to be even with the top of the mold. This will allow you to have thick fingers. Mix and pour your plaster in small batches as directions state. Let dry for the full 24 hours. Discard the pieces of clay after you make all the fingers you plan too!

Paint the green part of the finger first then the nails. After the fingers dry take them outside and spray your acrylic sealer. Let the fingers dry for the recommended time that your spray says too. While they are drying cut your ribbon to about 3-4 inches or smaller if you can manage tying small bows. Cut about 1 inch size magnets.
Make your treat boxes as the instructions say.
Invitations: Ours were made on the Avery post card paper printed front and back. One side was a menu the other had games, time, place who to talk to, and general reminder about dressing up. Roll up into scrolls as tight as possible and tie with twine.

After the fingers are dry tie your ribbon around your finger and place a magnet on the back. Place it in the coffin and an invite.

If you noticed we have something on the inside of the lid we have:
Your Invited to a Halloween Party
time and date and contact number and e-mail. We printed them out using small labels.
Once everything is inside Tie up with twin and hand them to friends.

Willow made over 40 of these the last week.
You can also use favor boxes and the fake moss method as well. But we wanted something more fun as they were passed out to Willow's Kids Classrooms. These also make great party favors! Sure to make people talk!

If you are wanting a craft kit just ask willow will hook you up!

Contest: Name The Species

The last few weeks we noticed strange furry balls scattering by. We have been trying to catch one to find out what it is. Today we were shocked to find not just one but a whole group! These creatures are very skittish, and have an appetite to match! We need your help in naming these beings!


Each Creature Comes with its own adoption certificate. These creatures are not suitable to give to small children or people who put things into there mouths.


Your Mission is to help us name this new species. Should you accept this replay to this post.
Rules of Contest:
1 post a day may have a list of species names (no more then 10 names in a post). May Post Daily! May invite friends to enter (Strongly suggest to get your friends in on this!). This is open for 1 month!
After 1 month we will randomly chose 5-7 species names and host a poll for 2 weeks.
The winner will receive a creature of there own.

Now go name these things before they devour my Home!

*Creatures are hand knitted, have elastic bands for mouths, have goggle eyes that are glued on.
Caring for the Creatures: Wash in cold water on gentle cycle. Air dry or very low heat.

Tart or Tort?

That's the age old question about the wax tarts. My mom calles them Scent chips. We are not sure what to call them but they are wonderful for setting a nice feeling. So I decided to show what my Tarts/Torts/Scent Chips look like.

The one pictured to the left is Gardenia and that's the natural color of the palm wax. The slight color is from the anointing Oils we use. Yes we do use Scents as well abs the natural anointing oils. I had a bunch of Halloween treat bag's left over from my kids class room partys last year so I decided to Use those up. Made intreasting conversations at Freedom Hill Trade Days!
For this Melting dimistration I decided to go with a red tart that is scented with rain (so good!). I just love how this wax takes the colors they come out so vibrant, plus that crystal look is really neet in my own opinion! Each Bag is weighed to 6 ounces, which could mean quite a bit of our tarts for $5.00 a bag. Good deal? We would like to think so!
For this melting demo I am useing a ceramic oil warmer you can use an electric one, or even the soapstone ones we have in our online shop. Mmm that red is scrumptious! So to the left I have the rain scented wax cube in my ceramic oil warmer which rakes a tea light inside. Not sure if you can see the crystal look to well in this picture.
Once I lit the tea light it only took about 5 minuets for the wax to melt. this palm wax has a high heat rate and we find that it holds the scent/oils very well. The Scent will weakend within time and becuse of this we pour them as they are orderd. We try not to have too much in actual candle or Tart form. We know how much you all love strong smelling scents and doing it this way has given our customers what they want! Stron smelling candles and tarts!
So this is what it looks like about 5 minuets into the warming phase. It reminds me of some sort of horror movie where something is sinking in a vat of blood lol. (Yes willow has lost her mind, I mean my mind ;) )
At this point the scent is really strong as it is being released and its not mealted all the way. This expermint was done in our kitchen. My hubby could smell it at this phase about 10 feet away. The cealing fans and ac didnt help the kitchen table is under the ac vents and in the living room is big cealing fan that we have on high all year round. Our home isnt made for scent traveling which helps in the kitchen when i make these little lovelies.
The Pic to the left is just about 2 minuets later now its starting to mealt faster. Mealt baby mealt was all I could say at this point lol.

With it finnally mealted in about 8 minuets within 10 it was starting to spread into at least 3 rooms. Kitchen, Dinning where it was sitiing, and the edge of the living room. At this point all Ii really could think of was what a nice pool of blood, I mean wax! I had to use the flash for this visual.
So thats our tarts in a nutshell They arnt the dancy big rings or anything just squars of solid wax with your choice of color and aroma. These will be up on our main site in a few days but feel free to request a custom order! We do gladely take those!
Right pic is when the wax cools off and rehardens which takes about 20 minuets in about 2 hours you can pop it out. One tart is good for hours of heating or up to 3-4 2 hour heating intervils before the scent is totally gone. I usually let it mealt and add in a few drops of oil to re perfume it up. You can get oils from us as well. In this pic you can really see the crystalization process of the palm wax.

Did i mention we also give out a free tart with every order?

Have a great weekend!
