First of all....I want to keep Buddy's picture at the top of my blog so maybe he will find his forever home soon! Click here to read Buddy's story!
I have some new art listed at Grapevine Hollow. Since I'm trying to get ready for my show, I haven't had time to list much on the internet...but I do have 3 new pieces there. This purse is one I made a while back that I decided to paint on it. I like how it turned out and think it looks even better in person! When you get to Grapevine Hollow, be sure to check out the other artists there. You'll find some great artwork there!
Yesterday was my 7th wedding anniversary. We went shopping and the best place we found was a Halloween store! Its hard to believe, but I didn't buy a thing in there! I got two little jack-o-lantern candle holders at Michaels to replace 2 I gave away last year. Recently I did buy myself something for Halloween. (But she will probably stay out all year long!) I bought this witch from Sam at Gollywobbles! (Thanks, Sam, for letting me use your ebay photo too!!) I just love her and I planned to put her on my front door, but I ended up hanging her right beside my desk so I can see her while I work. And she'll probably stay there!
I need to drag out my Halloween stuff. But we live in an old house that only has 2 closets. (It had one when we first moved--now we have one for clothes and one for the rest of the "stuff"!) So I dread going through all that stuff to get my Halloween decorations. Last year I splurged and bought a fog machine for our Halloween parties! We go all out for our parties...one of my sisters has a big party with a hay ride and her kids invite all her friends. Then we have one just for family. We make gross looking food and have a "fear factor" game where we make disgusting looking foods and someone has to eat it or they are eliminated. The kids take it pretty seriously and its a lot of fun!! One year I worked hard on a "bleeding heart". It was made from jello (and other stuff) and when you cut it, the liquid inside looks like blood. I guess it was too realistic because no one would watch me carve it! ha! They wouldn't even eat my witch fingers and they were just cookies with almonds for nails. I won't even try to describe the eyeballs I made! So now I try not to make the food TOO realistic! (We save that part for our game!)
