$1 DIY Skull Planter

Here’s one of our favorite DIYs we’ve done this season! A skull planter that is so easy, and only costs $1 to make! Plus the cost of your plant, of course. And paint, but we’re just assuming that you have some kind of paint in your house. So just $1! You also don’t have to use this as a planter! You can keep makeup brushes, pens and pencils, or whatever in it!

Jack Skellington Ritz Cracker Cookies

These cookies are kind of a Christmas tradition for our family, but today we decided to Halloween-ify them! And Halloween + Christmas makes us think of The Nightmare Before Christmas, so that’s what we decorated the cookies like!

Here’s how to make the cookies. There are two versions that you can make!

You will need

Ritz crackers

Peanut butter

White almond bark

Decorating icing

OR if that doesn’t sound good to you, you can make the other version we came up with, which is just chocolate covered Oreos instead of chocolate covered peanut butter ritz sandwiches.

Step one

Make peanut butter sandwiches by putting peanut butter in between two ritz crackers (if you’re using Oreos, just take them out of the package.)

Step two

Put the almond bark into a microwave safe bowl, microwaving in 30 second increments and stirring until melted.

Step three

Dip the cookie sandwiches into the chocolate and place them on a flat surface covered with wax paper or parchment paper. Wait for them to cool and for the chocolate to harden.

Step four

When they’re ready, decorate them! We used this decorating icing from Walmart with some decorating tips that were also at Walmart.

Here are some pictures of how our cookies turned out! We made some ritz and some Oreos.

If you make any of these, don’t forget to tag us on Instagram or Twitter. We’d love to see them! And sorry if this post wasn’t the best… it’s our first recipe post!


DIY No-Carve Unicorn Pumpkin

One of the best Fall activities is decorating pumpkins!! But carving them is hard (and sometimes dangerous! 😯), and we have a lot of styrofoam pumpkins from the Dollar Tree to decorate. So we thought we’d share some tutorials for the no carve pumpkins we’ve decorated this year. First up, a unicorn pumpkin!

Recently we made the paper snowflakes like Jack Skellington made in the movie, and we thought we’d share the process with you guys!
