A flock of owls?

This morning we decided to get up and get crafty! We made a flock of owls...is that a thing? Little pinecone owl ornaments from Sara of Repeat Crafter Me and we just LOVE them! They are super cute!! 
We have a family ornament exchange every year and I love making mine. I usually do a yarn-artsy kind of ornament but decided to expand my horizons and do something different this year! I think they turned out so cute and it makes me really excited to give them to my sisters this year! 

Later today we went to storytime with a friend at the local library and did another craft. We made cute little bats with movable wings made of paper and string. Gwenna had a blast even though she plays shy and refuses to participate. 
Then we did some goodwill shopping with friends for stuff to make halloween costumes out of. We grabbed a handful of things that we will hopefully make into some costumes including a round tablecloth (twirly skirt), poofy sweater dress (princess dress top) and black sweatpants with a black turtleneck (ninja outfit). We will see how they come together!! 

Later this afternoon we made a crown for Gwenna's princess dress and she couldn't be more thrilled!! She was so excited to help make it and she is so very proud of her new crown! We got the idea of making a crown from Repeat Crafter Me but ours is much more covered with glamour! :) 
It even has a big "G" on the front. She wanted to even wear it to bed. Lets see what else we can get done tomorrow!!
