The Cha, Cha, Cha Factor

"Oh ~ those are just too
Cha, Cha for words..."

~Truvy in Steel Magnolias~


In my ongoing pursuit to turn every activity I do into a party...I felt it absolutely necessary to incorporate the Cha, Cha, Cha Factor into the treats to be shared with the goblins coming our way tonight.

Take a gander at the fun to be had with everyday Halloween treats.

Take a dowel...cut into thirds...

Add a bit of candy...yum...

Grab some cool wand~making fabric and ribbon from your stash...

Set the candy in the middle of some fancy~pants wand fabric~ola...

Wrap fabric 'round candy and secure with rubber band

and attach to dowel...

Now, at this point you only have some cha, cha...so to get the

complete factor going tie some silky ribbon...AND...

Some wire~y star stuff...Bling, Bling wand~love...

But of course you must add detail to the dowel...any marker will do the trick...

And...CHA, CHA, CHA! The factor is achieved and then some.

Happy Halloween my dear blog pals...I am always a bit sad to see the season pass so quickly...so I am tucking a little pumpkin in my pocket close to my heart so as to remember all of the folly that we've shared over the past few weeks...and now....bring on the cranberries and the pumpkin pie...we are ready and waiting....oh what adventures we are gonna share.....be safe and have fun tonight!

Sorry you are sad, although you don't strike me as a woman who Ramona, Do be sad, although you don't strike me as a woman who would be sad for long. Doncha know that turkey, cranberries, cornucopias and pilgrims make the best holiday of all ( although don't try to find any T'giving decor, it's all Christmas now, baby).

Bring on Tom Turkey and all the carbs.
