Expert Tips & FAQs
Buy construction paper at the dollar store for plenty of fun projects. Felt is inexpensive so stock up on 5 or 6 sheets each time you go to the store. Traditional Halloween colors include black, orange, purple, red and green. However, you can use whatever colors you like for this project!

Hi Amanda, I must thank you for your craft ideas. I just finished your 4 seasons tree with a group of aged residents with dementia. They loved it, as did I, and were so happy that some thing they had created turned out so well. It is now hanging with pride on the wall in their residence. We are making rock ladybirds for their gardens next week then on to Halloween!!! So many ideas, so little time. Thank you again for fun creative art and craft for all levels

Thanks Tiffany :) It actually started about 4 years ago. A friend of mine, a fellow webmaster (I was running my website familycorner.com at the time), had been contacted by Kaboose.com. At the time they were not owned by Disney. Anyway, they were looking for someone to make crafts for their site and my friend was too busy with hers so she referred them to me. They gave me a few test assignments and I have been with them ever since :) In June of '09, Disney acquired kaboose and luckily I came along for the ride.
