eeeeeek! I have Mice!

October 8, 2012 by Kellie

This is the 4th year we’ve had a mice invasion.  You would think my kids would get used to it by now.  But nope, it’s *almost* like Christmas morning when the pumpkins & mice go on the staircase.  They get so excited over a holiday, just like their seasonal loving Mom.
Happy Monday!  I hope to be back later in the week with some more fun stuff.
P.S.  The mice are from the Dollar Tree!  Hurry ~ go & pick some up before they’re gone.
P.S.S. I painted the pumpkins a creamy white from the ugly orangey plastic color that they were (you know the ones I’m talking about) & used a sharpie for the lettering.
I’m social as can be!  Are you?  Follow along if you like.

    You’re killing me Kellie! I adore this and now wish I had stairs in my home to do this with!

    How fun! I thought maybe you’d used a Silhouette or Cricut to cut those guys out—very cute! Love the “Halloween” pumpkins too. 🙂

    Too cute, Kellie! I have always wished I had wood steps in the house just so I could do this project. 🙂 The pumpkins looks fantastic!!
