Halloween treats

Another group of Halloween key chains that I made from @amorningcupofjo free patterns. :) I gave the to some friends I haven’t seen in a long time. :) 

Happy Halloween Spirit! Hehe

FrankinOwl says Happy Near Halloween! :)

It's 4 days till Halloween! I hope you guys are having fun! :)

I made this adorable little guy with some inspiration from the holiday and A Morning Cup of Jo's facebook page giveaway. :)

He's more adorable than scary and that's why I love him. hehe

I hope you guys had a nice weekend! 

10 days till Halloween - Free Crochet Ghost Patterns!

OMG! Only 10 days till Halloween!!! And I've only made one thing to decorate with. :p I haven't been really in the Halloween mood but with some really cute crochet patterns out there and my wonderful friend, Bunny, from thewanderingbunny.blogspot.com sending me a great fun Halloween/Fall package, I'm getting in the holiday mood. :)

I love how she made this really cute felt raccoon feltie and then sent me the magazine with the pattern in it. :) hehe She also sent me some great Halloween decorations and treats. Makes me feel like digging up my Halloween decorations and go to town. :)

Since I'm just getting into crocheting Halloween themed cuties, I thought I would help you guys with some cute free patterns as well. :) Tonight, it will be cute friendly ghosts. :)

Let me introduce Andy, a little ghost who wanted to be a panda so bad that he decided to add panda markings for Halloween. With his limited resources, he wasn't able to completely become a panda but he is still quite adorable. :)

I made this cutie from the Free Baby Ghost Ornament Pattern from A Morning Cup of Jo Creations. You can find it HERE through craftsy. I would also follow her on the Facebook Page for more great patterns and giveaways. :)

The sweet guy is from Lion Brand and his name is Genie. I made him last year for my friend Rachel, my best Bunny, and added a sparkily red scarf for him. Sadly, I don't have a picture to post but you can find him on her blog (url is earlier in the post). For this free pattern, click HERE.

I found this larger crochet ghost over at craftsy. Just click HERE, it's free. :)

Click HERE for this adorable ghost decoration for Halloween. IDEA! :) You could also do a "Hear no Evil, See no Evil, Speak no Evil" ghost set with this pattern. :)

One of my favorite crochet designers, Twinkie Chan, came up with this Ghost Candy Container using Yoplait yogurt containers. Her adorable free pattern can be found on her blog, HERE. I would check out her other patterns, they are all adorable and usually centered around food. hehe

Can you believe it? I was so excited that someone wrote out a pattern for Zero the Ghost Dog and it's free!! You can find the pattern HERE.

And lastly, here is a great ghost bowl for all your treats. :) Boo!tiful Candy Bowl Free pattern from Lion Brand Yarn, HERE. :)

I would love to see all of your cute creations! Please post pictures on my Facebook Page, Panda8ngel Creations. :)

Happy Panda Halloween!!!

The first time I see a kid dressed as a Panda, she or he is getting all my candy! hehe

Hope you guys had a safe and fun night!

Surprise Halloween Package from Bunny

My beloved friend, Rachel sent me a surprise Halloween package a little early so I can enjoy it for the season. :) I decided to share all the goodies with you! :)

In the purple tissue paper, she put this cute mug with a zombie, this adorable black cat, and some panda earrings. The apple case held 2 cute Halloween tins full of candy! And lastly, the black spiderweb had some fixings so that I can have a yummy cup of hot coco (which I'm drinking right now :P) for those cold nights. :)

I can't wait to start decorating with all the cute items I've received over the years. Yes, I have not started decorating for Halloween. :p I've been so behind! 

In the cute Halloween shoebox, there were tons of amazing goodies. Safety noses and eyes for all my crafting. More candies, come smell good candles, lotions, and sanitizers, a cupcake kit, cute ribbons, note pad, and playing cards to add to my collection.

I love that she included the Hobbit. But now my dilemma is whether or not to read it before watching the movie or after. :p

I always love and cherish the cards she sends me. I have a bunch of boxes full. :)  

My own package to her is still not ready but I hope to have it done soon so stay tuned. Thanks again little bunny!! I love it all! :)

Halloween Recap

Halloween morning I went with a friend to the gym and did cardio for a total of 40 min and some back and ab exercises. Then I started making my cupcakes. I baked them, had to wait for them to cool, color the frosting, frost the cupcakes, add the web design with gel. I also had to print out, cut out, put together, and put the cupcake toppers onto the cupcakes. All the while doing 4 loads of laundry. And I really wanted to wash my car but couldn't. Then my family went to West Hollywood for the Halloween carnival so I had to leave the cupcakes, candy, and toys (for the wee ones) on my front porch with a note. 3 of the cupcakes were gone and no one had damaged our porch by throwing cupcakes regardless of what my friend was predicting. I was then dragged to the gym again for a more back-focused workout. But I brought the girl on staff a cupcake and made her night. :) All and all a nice day and night. :)

My Halloween Decorations:

The cross stitched pumpkin was from my friend Rachel last year. :) The dog actually dances and flaps his ears. It's so cute! Along with the cupcakes, I gave out these candies and some little toys for the wee ones.

My mo had bought the place mat and the snow globe but the ghost cup, beanie, and cross stitch is from my friend Rachel. :) The pillow is really cute! I loved it!

A little centerpiece to my dinning table. Thank you Rachel!

The chocolate cupcakes I made. I put it in pumpkin cupcake liners. I also tinted the frosting orange to match the pumpkins. I printed the toppers on label paper and just stuck two circles together with a toothpick in between.

Pictures from the West Hollywood Carnival:

Steve Jobs Lego Man

Girl version. There was a guy dressed in the same costume.

Tella Tubbies

We saw like 10 of them, both male and female.

The Queen of England with the Princess of China

Trojan Man. 

 There were a couple of guys dressed with a big white bubble on their heads waving around a white streamer. Guess what they were....sperm!

Angry Birds

 There were a lot of Angry Birds fans.

Gingie!

1 of 2 Peacocks

 There were two European men dressed up as peacocks. Their tail feathers can be raised and lowered as they want by pulling on two strings. Very ingenious.

Victoria Secrets Drag Angels

Old Pregnant Chinese "Lady"

Care Bears?

Hope you guys had a great Halloween! Don't eat too much candy.
