These no-sew Halloween plushies are so adorable and they’re really easy to make! No sewing skills required!

These beaded pipe cleaner pumpkins are SO CUTE and super simple to make! You only need a two basic supplies: orange pony beads, and pipe cleaners. That’s it! If you saw our beaded pipe cleaner Indian corn from a few weeks ago, the process is pretty similar. Except with these pumpkins, you pull apart the pipe cleaners to make a pumpkin shape – easy peasy! Before you know it, you’ll have your very own pumpkin patch!

This salt painted Halloween craft is inexpensive and so fun! My kids love the process of creating 3-dimensional works of art! We tried this craft for the first time earlier this year when we made salt painted easter eggs that turned out AMAZING. We wanted to try it again but with a spooky Halloween twist.

These coffee filter spiderwebs are so much fun and they’re surprisingly simple to make! They’re similar to the paper spiderwebs we made last year, but the coloured coffee filters take the craft to a whole new level. Plus, they’re a bit more kid friendly since the web is a bit smaller.

These lolly pop spiders are SO SIMPLE and look adorably creepy! They’d make great party favours or a fantastic treat to send to school on Halloween! You could whip up at least a dozen of these in less than 15 minutes. I love treats that are easy to put together!

This paper plate ghost is such a fun handprint craft for Halloween! It’s SO EASY to make these handprint ghosts, and they’re such a cute homemade decoration.

Learn how to dye pumpkin seeds with this easy tutorial! Colour pumpkin seeds with liquid watercolor paint and use the beautiful rainbow coloured seeds for sensory play or crafts!

Finger knitting is so easy! And it’s so fun! It’s sooooo much easier than regular knitting. And you can actually make something from beginning to end in less than 10 minutes. OK, so we’re only making bracelets, necklaces and headbands here, but out of all the time I’ve spent knitting with my girls, we still haven’t actually finished anything. Not even a Barbie blanket. (lol We’ll get there some day…)
