As seen on the HalloweenForum FaceBook page today.......14 days til Halloween!
Yup, that's how I feel! I am so not ready. I'm not even begun to set out the apothecary yet! Hopefully this weekend, so I have a chance to enjoy it all.
Here are a couple things I've been working on....
I had time to kill while waiting on our Chinese carry-out tonight, so I wandered thru the Salvation Army & found these adorable stuft critters. I love the batty witch dress on the bear and normally I don't do clowns, but I couldn't pass up this cat. Besides the pocket says "Boo" and he's porcelain.... It reminds me of someone........

I call this village a work in progress, since I KNOW I have more buildings somewhere!
This is currently my favorite prop outside. I call him Matt, (even tho it's usually a guy with no arms or legs lying on the ground - LOL). He had a different skull, but that one had no jaw and looked weird, so I replaced it with this one and dropped him on the ground while doing something else. When I looked at him, this is how he landed, so there he stays!
I need another book to do-over since I have a bunch of plastic snakes & bugs that would look neat on one. The skeleton is glued to a book-looking box and the other is an old book found at the Salvation Army. "SPELLS" and the apple are wood and "and potions" are foam stickers. Both will be paper-mache'd eventually.
What have you been working on?
That Mat's one good lookin' guy! Is that a pajama top he's wearing? Dn't feel bad, we're not as far along as we'd hoped to be either.
