Countdown to Halloween Craft

I saw a version of this online and thought it would be a perfect addition to my Halloween collection as a fun way to countdown to Halloween for the kids. One could possibly say that I have entered the "nesting phase" of pregnancy and am definitely trying to get things done beforehand.

Here's my attempt at a tutorial, although it is pretty self explanatory.

Materials Needed:

Halloween papers

Halloween embellishments (as many as you want)

Numbers (I used different colored stickers)

Poster Board

Magnet Strip

Glue Stick
Hot Glue Gun

2 24 cup muffin tins

Ribbon for hanging

Cut the paper to fit the size of the muffin tin. My salt shaker was the perfect size.

I glued poster board to the decorative paper to make it thicker and added a magnet at the top and bottom.

Arrange the papers in the order you want them.

Have fun embellishing! I used ribbon, 3-D stickers, regular sticker, and rick rack.

And then Luke punched two holes for hanging it on a wall with ribbon and because he can, he popped rivets to hold it together. You could also just hot glue it together.

Next I made the top part: Countdown to Halloween and Viola! Just need to add ribbon for hanging, but you get the idea.

When Halloween comes around you put goodies in the muffin tin for a daily surprise.
