Halloween at my Home, Another Sweet Award, and Coming Soon....SEHA goodies!

Inquiring minds have asked, so I thought I would take the time and post a few pix of some of my Halloween decorations. We don't do too much outside because we are normally not home on Halloween and I think kids are disappointed when there is a really cool house and no candy, but we do a fair bit on the inside. Here are a few small examples:

You remember my WIP, Scary Snowman. As you can see, he is still a WIP. I have been so busy that all he can do is sit and smile and wait for me to get back to work on him.

This is our front door, festooned with spiders and a light up web. We take it down and put it up as needed.


The night light, so the kiddies can find their way to the bathroom at night. It is pretty bright, too, so they can also see what they are doing. Saves mommy LOTS of clean up.



Here is our SPPOOOKY wall sconce. Well, not spooky, but it does have orange and black for the holidays and it casts some cool shadows.



Here are a few items on the table my darling husband put together for me. I love paper mache! Also, please note the wicked cool zombie to the right of the candle. I won him from Static White Stitchery and he is awesome!!!! I'll post a bigger picture of him next week, but you can see more at her site. Find her work at http://swstitchery.etsy.com/


On that note, I was a big prize winner in a SEHA giveaway. SEHA stands for the Society of Eclectic Halloween Artists and all of the artists represented there are just wonderful. I have been recieving gorgeous items in the mail all week long. This weekend I am going to take some good pictures of everything for a special SEHA post that will be up and ready for perusal early next week. Look for it! And while you wait, be sure to check them all out at http://sehacreations.blogspot.com/

And now to my award. Many thanks to Marzel (the magnificent, in my opinion), who is such a wonderful and giving person. Truly, truly amazing. Check her out at http://theplayoflightandshadows.blogspot.com/
