Halloween Ideas!

Some fun wreath ideas for the Holiday season...
Silver Pumpkins...I like these...
Wish I had some stairs to put these mice on...
An updated version to the regular pumpkin carving thing...


Makes me want to have a party.
This is made from a face mask that has all the orifaces taped and 2 gloves filled with green water.

Ooooo...I like these...just a bit different than a regular jack-o-lantern face.
Simple, clever, love these.
Gotta love the mice. Fake ones, anyway....
Melon Brains...
Hanging crafts.
Oooo...Spooky...
Nothing is better than glitter...
Crepe Paper Curtains. Wish I could take down my verticals...
Cute coutdown activity.. I could see myself making this one actually...Candy+Wire Wreath=Holiday Decor

Hope these get you in the mood. I know you all have plenty of extra time to go out and get crafty!

The Photographer I aspire to be...Someday...

Someday..Someday...I want to make art as beautiful as
Tracy Raver.
I heard about her on Oprah.
I never watch Oprah.
I really don't like Oprah.
But somehow I just happened to pass her show flipping lazily on the boob tube.
The segment was on Photography, so I decided to stop.
Someday...Someday...I want to become famous for my photography.
Boy do I have a LooooooNG way to go!
Check out her website. http://www.tracyraver.com
Just replace the Rav with Eld and I, too, will have a website and studio of my own ..Someday..Someday...
