These little guys are a dietitian’s best friend. No calories! You can make a whole group of them for a cute little Halloween centerpiece. They are quick to work up. You can make one in 30-40 minutes.
I think this would be a great project to help your daughter or granddaughter learn to crochet. My 9 year old has been begging to learn. I think I might help her make a couple for her room. She loves to decorate her dressing for each holiday and season!

These are so cute! Maybe if I start now I can have them done in time for Halloween!
These are adorable! They would be super cute in a bowl minus the faces too. Then they could be out through Thanksgiving! Thanks for linking up with DIY under $5!

I adore these! I wish I could crochet, but for some reason I’ve only learned to knit. My husband’s grandmother has been trying to teach me, but I’m all thumbs! I wonder if I could get her to make one of these for the kids.
These are so cute. I wish I was crafty and motivated enough to make these. Maybe I’ll bribe my mother in-law into making them. She’s good at that sort of thing!
So darling….maybe I can get my mom to make them while she is over at my house staying with Brody while I go to Bloggy Conference!
These are so cute! I don’t crochet, but these make me wish that I did.
