We've had so much exciting news this year, and the news keeps on coming! Here I am sitting in the hair and makeup seat backstage at The Martha Stewart Show! Check out all the fun things that are happening in our world this month:

Heather on The Martha Show

I just got back from New York City where I went to the The Martha Stewart Show! Not only did I attend the taping (the episode is all about dollar store crafting!), but I got to share a dollar store Halloween costume idea with Martha. Make sure to tune in to see me on the show on the Hallmark Channel on October 10th!

Heather's Paper Doll Costume on the Cover of Family Fun Magazine

My paper doll costume idea was chosen to be on the cover of the October 2011 issue of Family Fun! We were so excited in September when Rhonda's project landed on the cover of Family Fun, and we couldn't believe it when we found out the ladies of Dollar Store Crafts landed the cover of FF two months in a row. I'm so happy about this honor because this is one of my favorite magazines. I've subscribed to Family Fun since before I even had kids. Also, check inside this issue of the magazine for another of my ideas: the Basketball Hoop costume.

New Dollar Store Crafting Column on FaveCrafts

I have started writing a regular column for FaveCrafts.com, a site that offers thousands of great craft ideas and tons of inspiration. I will share my favorite dollar store craft projects every week in their e-newsletter, so if you'd like to get it, sign up at FaveCrafts.com.

Community Leader at Coffee Talk

I have been a community leader over at the International Delight Coffee Talk Community for the past several months, and I have really enjoyed myself! The Coffee Talk community is a fun little community where we can chat about anything we feel like. Some of my recent favorite topics have been Free or Cheap Halloween Costume Ideas and Halloween Craft Ideas. Come join us!
