As you might have figured out, I go a little "ape" decorating for holidays...everything from buying the right "candle" for fragrance to having the right little "snacks" available for any visitors who may happen through. (My "candy corn" dishes will be filled with miniature chocolate bars and orange and black wrapped peanut butter kisses (one of my old time faves!)
First, some inexpensive decorations found at a local "Halloween" store. Everything you see was half price! Again I went with "sweet and cute" rather than scary and gorey. :-) It's just NOT my bag, baby!
Lying around on the table, you might remember the vintage spoon "album" I made a year or two ago? Here are a few closer shots of the spoons, colored with Alcohol Inks!
I found this adorable little candlestick at a nearby "General Store." (It was SO FUNNY...my husband willingly tagged along, thinking General Store meant, "general merchandise."..like FOOD and TOOLS and hunting equipment...HA! It is a 3 room expanse of all things primitive and crafty! He had NO IDEA! I snagged the little spook and his candlestick and SKEdaddled out without spending my usual HOURS inside. :0) Hubby Dear was NOT amused! But *I* was!)
And my sweet little "BOO" banner, dragged out yet again...made by the ineffable Jan Thomason of Paper Cowgirl fame...
Another craft post coming your way shortly!
Hugs,
