It's September 1st which means the official start to Fall and I've got just the project to kick off your spooky season! Subscribers voted and this is the September Exclusive project for 2025.
It's the Spooky Countdown House - a 3D standing house that holds 2 numbered cubes to count down the days until Halloween!
For this project, I used a mix of materials - cardstock for the majority, but I did work some vinyl into this project to avoid working with teeny tiny cardstock pieces. The text on the house is HTV (Heat Transfer Vinyl) and the numbers on the cubes is Permanent Vinyl (Oracal 651.) For the HTV, I pressed it into cardstock using my Cricut Mini Press on the lowest setting. When doing this, be sure to use a heat-safe surface and press just for a second or two.
If you're confused about which digits to put on which cubes, like I was when I first designed this project - have a look at this assembly tutorial. This video is for the original project I made for Christmas last year.
