Pinatas, pinatas! Here is the finished mole. I love the way he just floats in a circle, waiting to be whacked. Mr. Mole is now listed in our Etsy shop. Hurrah! We sold a pumpkin and an owl. Here is the pumpkin.And here is a preview of Mr. Turkey. Continue reading More Finished Pinatas
Haunted House for Sale (Just in time for Halloween)
We finished one more pinata in our smack ’em and whack ’em project. This one is the haunted house. We are having fun using up old boxes, long-stored paper, and some new punches Paula got at a yard sale. When you’re making a run-down old haunted house, things can be slanted, off center or slightly tattered and it just adds to the effect. Cool, huh?

The Sweet and the Creepy
I finished two more pinatas. The spider and a pumpkin. Look at this creepy picture of the spider’s face. I really did find pictures of spiders with eyes all over their heads. GROSS!Here is the finished pinata. As I’ve mentioned before, shipping the pinatas is a problem. I made this spider so his legs can be unattached for shipping and the customer can quickly attach … Continue reading The Sweet and the Creepy
Spider Eyes
Spider: Pinata Number #18 Life keeps sidetracking me from my piñata project. But life is good, so I’m not complaining, I’m counting blessings. I left off with number 18 of the 20 piñatas in 20 weeks challenge. The 18th piñata is a horrible black widow spider. I really don’t want to make this a cutesy spider. It should be a Halloween creepy spider. One day I decided … Continue reading Spider Eyes
20 Piñatas…Continued
As promised, here is more of the piñata list. I got as far as number eight. Number 8: The wedding cake is done and for sale in our ETSY shop. Number 9: Mark’s owl is almost finished. Isn’t it adorable? For some reason, I think he should be wearing tennis shoes. Number 10: Paula’s owl. Poor thing is still in pieces on the table downstairs. … Continue reading 20 Piñatas…Continued
Pinata Challenge..Busted!
Haha. Pinata… Busted. Nice play on words. Nope, I didn’t win the 20 Pinatas in 20 days challenge. Good thing it was just something I made up. I do think it could be an interesting reality TV show, though. Even if I didn’t meet my goal, I feel I accomplished a lot of what I wanted to do. First off, my daughter told me I … Continue reading Pinata Challenge..Busted!
It’s Not Easy Being Orange
Day 19 of the Pinata Challenge. Here’s the flat owl pinata. It’s not totally done yet, but I got a good start on it today. Look what’s growing on our tree. This is the pumpkin pinata getting ready for a paint job. I covered it with orange tissue paper thinking that it would help the pinata take the spray paint. Then I painted some black … Continue reading It’s Not Easy Being Orange
Pinata Progress
Days 16 and 17. Most of what I’ve been doing is yucky pasting, but here is a colorful photo: This spring we helped make a float and we learned a lot of new things from the experience. We learned about floral sheeting which is what is used to cover the floats. This is some upcycled floral sheeting. I wanted to see how it would look on … Continue reading Pinata Progress
